[QUOTE="Crockett&Tubbs, post: 652031, member: 11361"] Most likely yes. There are many times when a team has similar grades on players who are available, but they choose one or the other for various reasons. It's been said that in 2009, the Packers had Michael Crabtree rated highest on their board (available at the pick), but still selected NT BJ Raji at #9 overall. Remember that was the year when Capers' 3-4 defense was being installed, so the NT was an important addition. Also, in 2010, it's been written that the Packers may have had Dez Bryant and Jerry Hughes rated ahead of Bryan Bulaga. But the grades were close enough, and the Packers went with the position TT wanted filled more. Also, character issues sway them one way or the other. Also in defense of the Randall over all ILB picks: Had they known they'd select Quinten Rollins in Rd 2, perhaps they'd have gone ILB with the 1st pick. But you can never know if QR will be there in Rd 2. I still kept wanting them to grab Paul Dawson as he slid down towards #100.... I actually had read one scouting report with analytics and data which said he was THE best of all those ILBs. [/QUOTE]
