[QUOTE="digsthepack, post: 34383, member: 209"] You cannot make a living drafting for "this years needs". Although a team must give more weight to need when conducting a draft, due primarily to unfettered free agency and the shorter time players are with a team, one must still draft talent. I will say, however, that Sherman's mistake was similar to Denny Green's...always drafting projects and sleepers...and becoming fixated on them. In this day and age you need to draft production, even if ugly, over potential more often than not. I will gladly take a player who is able to contribute immediately at a reasonably high level, over the potential laden talent that MAY outshine the one I took in 3 - 4 years.........just in time to leave for someone else's big-money contract.
