Message: <blockquote data-quote="HardRightEdge" data-source="post: 476167">No argument there, but that does not support the BPA argument. How about if that TE was graded #25, the difference between #25 and #15 was not substantial (which is usually the case), TE is a big need for you, and the guys you have graded #15 - #24 are not positions of need. TE might be the wise choice. BPA is thrown around too much.  The only instances where you might see evidence that the practice is used in any meaningful way is with bad teams undergoing management and coaching changes with holes and clubhouse problems all over the place. Let's try a thought experiment. Let's say we had Von Miller together with Matthews going into that last draft. Would TT have reached for Perry at that draft position? No way. That puts a dent in the BPA argument. Let's look at Heyward. We play 70% nickel. Woodson needed to move to safety. There was no one else on the roster to fill that need. Look in the dictionary under nickel corner and there's Heyward's picture. Better trade up else you find yourself holding your d*ck. I would have thought those 6 defense picks would have finally put this argument to bed. I cannot think of any reason why it hasn't except that fans can't believe TT was "deceiving" them , even if he has abundant reasons to dish the BPA story even if it wasn't true.</blockquote>
