You go from something that may pan out to something that almost surely will.

And as said as this may sound I would be more pissed about giving up a 4th in the deal than any other pick. Well maybe not a #1 but it seems the 4th round of drafts have become the most valuable drafts not only for this team but for the NFL. You rarely see those giving up and rightfully so. Its usually full of players who have 1st round talent but either got injured his senior season, off the field problems or had a bad senior season.
