7th Round Order?

by Eric Jensen on Mar 28, 2011 5:40 PM PDT

I've been reading around different draft websites and have found a couple of different 7th round orders

CBS Sports says that Atlanta gets Detroit's 7th round pick (#6 in the round, #209 overall) in exchange for Chris Houston, 49ers pick next at #7, #210 overall, and again #27, #230 overall (from the Jets though Detroit for Shaun Hill)

Walter Football says 49ers get #7 (from Detroit for Shaun Hill), pick again at #8, Detroit forfeits the Jets pick (because of the tampering scandal), and that the Atlanta gets Detroit's second 6th round pick (#19 in the round) for Chris Houston

Bleacher Report says the same as Water Football, but without Atlanta getting Detroit's second 6th round pick...

What does everyone else think, and which order is correct?

I'm honestly confused too

I think the NFL has the official setup. I dunno when it will be released but I will keep an eye out for it. If I see it I will post a fan shot.

Actually I think there was a front page post on it a little back. NN is usually good with it.

i brought that up a while ago, but i never figured out the correct order.

most sites i looked at had us getting Detroit’s own 7th round pick, and one of them said Atlanta got the Jets 2nd round pick from Detroit.

i hadn’t seen anything that said Atlanta got a 6th round pick from Detroit.

We don't need 8 in the box. We have 52 in the box.

Things changed when the compensatory picks were awarded last week...

We now (with compensatory picks) have 4 picks in round 7. I have us at #210, #230, #238, and #249. Not certain where I got this. Maybe from CBS, because it’s in agreement with them as far as the 1st two 7th round picks are concerned, but more likely from Maiocco or Barrows, but then maybe they got it from CBS… who knows???

After all was said and done, a lot more got said than done.

My take on the situation

Based on what I’ve seen, I think Walter Football has it the most accurate, but i think the NFL kinda screwed this up too. How can Detroit forfeit a 7th round pick when it didn’t have any to begin with because of trades? I think it should be we get picks #7 (for Shaun Hill) and #8 in the 7th round, Atlanta gets #30 (to fulfill the Chris Houston deal, which Detroit got from the Jets), and that Detroit forfeits #19 in round 6 instead of a 7th round pick

Something else I just noticed

CBS Sports left out Denver’s 7th round pick, they go from Green Bay (from Carolina) to Buffalo

The real problem is that the trade deals weren't disclosed

so everyone is guessing based on “reliable sources” which picks were traded. Sure the round is right, but hard to tell where, especially because it might have been contingent on how the draft order fell.

Kinda, but thats not really the whole deal

Its more about who gets what really based on the Lions tampering scandal and which pick the Lions are forced to forfeit, the problem is that the NFL is trying to take away a pick the Lions don’t have to give, since they both already belong to our 49ers and the Falcons. We know which picks were traded (picks #7 and #30, #7 being the Lions originally, and #30 that the Lions got from the Jets for Kevin O’Connell). The other problem is if the NFL does take a pick away, because they’d really be taking it away from a team other than the Lions (either our 49ers or the Falcons, if they still intend to have it be a 7th round pick of course…)
