And in this league that is a huge difference.
Draft picks in rounds 2-7 get 4 year deals, which means they don't become RFAs at the end of their rookie deals. You either sign them long term (assuming they want to stay) or tag them if you want to keep them.
Getting a 5th year at a discount out of a player that should be talented is a HUGE boon.
well to be fair, that was in reference to the picking order in draft choices ONLY and not meant as far as contracts go. the contract situation and 5th year options are a separate matter and have nothing to do with who you get to pick from with that pick so in that sense picking 32 vs picking 33 is not much difference at all as far as player choices you have to pick from.
in contractual situations and 5th year options on those contracts, then yes there is a HUGE difference in 32 vs 33

That could be the difference between getting the guy you want and missing out by one pick.
Also player and contract aside 32 is also a HUGE boon for trading back and getting more picks for better value than you otherwise would get, because it is the LAST chance to get a player with the 5th year. Teams give up prime picks in trade for that.
