If you are retaining 1/3 on the contract then I think it becomes the equivalent of 2 second round picks or a late first round pick. Once it is a first round pick then you are getting a 6-10 teams prospect.
I would not spend $5M to upgrade a 3rd round pick to a 2nd round pick. Take the 2nd and 3rd and let them deal with the money.
