That's nowhere near the same as moving down 37 and moving up 37 later. The person moving down has gained absolutely nothing from this transaction and, in fact, has lost the trade because all they've really done is deferred their upcoming pick and got nothing in return. Heck, even if a person moved down 36 and moved up 37 later, they could at least say, "Hey, I moved up a spot in the next round."

Edit: I'm really looking to interfere with anything. I just have a fairly healthy respect for logic, and I'm trying to wrap my head around this trade.

I never said it WAS the same thing. Where is the logic of moving 6 spots to lose 79 later?? You wanted to make a move so I made an offer. I am not about to make an offer to lose ground. Steve wanted to make a move and I made the same offer. I guess it is up to Steve to explain his logic. For me it was a no brainer
