Did the Sailfish get help from Valor here?

I'm on tom hanks side on this trade I think he could have not traded that 7th but with a team that won't be playing until that second year He doesn't really lose much on shifting a first down a year.

I have found that this class has a little over 3 rounds of “first round cornerstone” talent. We have three picks in these 3 rounds still, and we’re comfortable building our franchise around them.

Also, the S23 first is extremely valuable since this class will likely be smaller and therefore less deep. We have potential to enter next draft with 2 “top half of round 1 picks”.

I think that the masses aren't actually doing any scouting. Your trade shifts 1 pick inside pick 30 (preliminary where I am seeing traditional 1st round value stop), and moves 2 up inside pick 60 (where I am seeing traditional quality depth extend to) so you don't lose anything in this trade other than the option to choose your 1st round value player sooner. Upside is you shifting the 7th into 2 players inside top value depth range, as well as picking up the 1st next season. For a team that has needs at every position, giving up the choice premium of the 1OA for 2 extra quality pieces and a future 1st is a good move, don't let the reactionary player base get you down.
