If you have 12 picks in the 7th, chances are you probably are going to take your top 12 on that list and not have to settle for #5, 19, 36, 41....etc because your preferred guys got better offers from other teams.When someone asks another team to "toss in a 7th round pick", I doubt its because adding a "value of 1" from the trade chart evens things out, its the value of drafting the rights to another player that appeals to the receiving team.</blockquote>
