Maybe a little steep but it wasn't a deep draft and 2 4th rounders...meh,  I was ok w/it. 

I don't know exactly how they calculate "points" but it seems like a even trade...

They paid more to go from 23 to 20 than the Chiefs did to go from 9 to 6… it was a significant overpay but Pitt was gonna draft lemon and cowboys had us over a barrel. 
 

overall love their draft, they should hopefully get 3 offensive starters in the future out of it and the QB should be a fun gadget player like Taysom Hill. Love the tackle they took, between him and the guy they took last year, I think one could be the Lane replacement. Still think we need more depth in the interior oline and safety. Getting a guy like Greenard for 2 3rds was a steal, he’s going to he feast here with our interior dline taking the double teams.

Not quite. Cheifs traded picks 78 and 148, Birds traded 114 and 137. All and all, I like what Howie did there. With Brown leaving and Hurts is in his prime you have to give him every possible tool. And I agree picking up Greenard was a good move and yes he should have a field day out there for the reason you mentioned...
