There’s no way I trade a first for Knox

Did we make the trade before the 2019 draft?

1. The trade was after, so we didn’t technically trade that pick (in terms of Stepien rule).
2. We’re talking about making the selection for someone else and making the trade “after,” so even if we traded the 2019 pick, it’s irrelevant. Likewise, even if we owed 2021 unprotected, we can still trade 2020 after making the selection.

My confusion was I thought we traded the 2020/2021 picks for Conley. That makes more sense now.
