Was this the best option to get Ifedi, or would he have been there a few picks later?
Or is "34 & 67" better or worse than "31 & 94"?

"Jerry Jones indicated late Thursday evening that the club was willing to part with its second (No. 34) and third (No. 67) round picks in order to move back into the first round for Lynch, a player the Cowboys owner believes has "the highest upside in the draft.''
Denver won the race. The defending world champions offered their first round pick (No. 31) and their third round pick (No. 94) to move up to Seattle's spot at No. 26 to select Lynch. It can be argued that the Cowboys offer provided more value, but the Seahawks appeared intent on staying in the first round so they would have the fifth-year option on the player they selected, which was Texas A&M tackle Germain Ifedi."
