If Arizona gets a compensatory pick for Bleackley, it will be 54, 55 or 56.
I haven't had enough coffee yet, but can someone explains how this works? I would have thought that Washington and Dallas winning more would push them down the draft order (i.e. to bigger numbers) and therefore push Florida up (to a smaller number). It seems backwards to me, but I assume I'm missing something.
