The team had to trade something of equal value. A 7th for a 3rd makes no sense.
Traditionally a pick in next year's draft has an equivalent value to a pick one round lower in the current draft. So a 2nd next year is in the ballpark of a third this year.
Finally Kamarra has a 2nd round grade on most boards.
So dude will be considered a 2nd round pick next year that the team gets this year with the additional cost of a 7th round pick.
If he can come in and be half of what Sproles was at the top of his game in the Saints offense, then maybe it'll pan out...
