[QUOTE="sschind, post: 604459, member: 10247"] I tend to agree with you. The thing is when you rely as heavily on the draft to stock, or restock, your team getting more draft picks is the best way to do it. Its true that 6th rounders don't usually contribute much but as others have said, you never know. Its also important remember that not every team is filled with high round starters. There are lots of low round backups that also contribute. With the salary cap and paying a lot of money out to a few older vets you need a lot of cheap young guys to round out the roster. The best way to insure that you have the best of those cheap young guys is by drafting a lot of them and picking the best ones. The old "the more crap you throw against the wall" principle. Some of the people on another board lambasted me when I disagreed with the notion that the reason Ted does not sign more free agents is because he covets the comp picks he gets for losing his own players and he doesn't want to off set this. My point was like yours if there was a FA Ted liked and thought he could help the team he would sign him comp pick be damned and I said, just like you did, I would be disappointed if Ted passed on a FA he thought could help just so he might get that extra pick .
