The 255 picks are assigned a numeric value. It is used to determine fairness of trade offers. In order to trade up from #26 (700 point value) to #22 (780 point value), they needed to add later compensation worth at least 80 points (780-700=80). They gave up the #83 pick, which has a value of 175, 95 points more than needed in theory. They did so because the value of the player was arguably as much as 3,000 points yet he had slid later than expected.
