That’s why you have to take advantage of it when it happens. Barron was that guy this draft, but they went Egbuka. We’ll see if they or the pundits were right.

Agreed. 

Don’t hate the pick by any means and get the logic behind it. 

But, wasn’t BPA in my opinion. And one of those opportunities where BPA and need intersected. 

Hard to argue with that but my schtick all off season is that wr is a massive need.

I view McMillan as an elite wr3, and an average wr2.

I view Godwin as an elite wr2, and a fringe wr1 assuming he comes back 100%.

Evans is elite but he might be done after this year...

Given the age of our two best weapons this was a clear need for me...

But again Barron would have been a good pick too.

I think it's too early to judge McMillan. 

Think you're spot on about CG and ME. 

All of this being said, I didn't see WR as a massive need (unless Smooth Brain Bowles decides to nuke our current group again due to his stupidity).

I do think we would possibly be in the market next season (definitely the one after), so I don't mind it being addressed now, versus when you're telegraphing it.

I think very few teams can commit to a pure BPA strategy.

Maybe advances analytics/AI will (is?) changing some of the strategies.

Yeah good point. Ultimately if we can grab some camp fodder at LB and edge I think we can put out a serviceable defense.

It won't be last year's masterpiece that JC fawns over but I think Reddick, and CB is enough to make Bowles telegraphed blitz strategy slightly more effective.

I think we should offer Clowney 2m/year and a chance to start. 

Hopefully some LB help as well because it looks from there.
