[QUOTE="Favre>Rodgers259, post: 809256, member: 10866"] Unfortunately though, that's what happens. The Draft is typically the last time a GM can improve his roster, save for a handful of FAs who maybe have held out until the conclusion so they can determine their true interest. We saw this with the WR Class of '18, it was a weak class and the few who were of note went quickly by the conclusion of the 2nd Round. GMs have to weigh the option of trying to add a difference maker or just simply not addressing the position at all. Take Spriggs, we jumped up in the 2nd plus gave up a pick because of the run on OL and the perceived drop off in talent moving forward. With Gute, I don't expect Spriggs to be back or relegated to a permanent backup to be replaced in years time. At the end of the day nobody, 1st Round or later is a guaranteed success story. GMs have to make the best assessment possible and make a decision based on the scouting parameters they have set and measured against. It's a flawed science. [/QUOTE]
