[QUOTE="OldSchool101, post: 770808, member: 10086"] Yes, but that's really not that hard to accomplish when your draft order is the last couple of guys per round for nearly a decade (in which case 2-3 solid starters per season isn't really that awful) Most pass rushers that are deemed at a level to be a quality starter or even being an immediate impact pass rusher are long gone late second round. Fan expectations and excitement often exceed the statistical reality of the draft for sure. If we draft a pass rusher type after round 2 that's basically a project guy that might develop in a year or two at best. Players take time to develop and the earlier in the round you draft, the higher the potential to land a quality rusher that can contribute. This is exactly why I think if we don't get a premier pass rusher round 1 this year, we'd better be prepared to move up earlier into round 2 so we're not picking from a scrap pile (no offense Vince) This is especially true this year, because for once we have the combination of draft capital (with our placing and numbers of picks) to move into a formidable position for a someone that should statistically be an immediate contributor. I believe there will be a particular player on our radar that slips into late round 1 or early round 2 that we should consider snagging. Pick #14 is no mans land in a way. It likely not good enough to get one of the very best pass rushers, but it's too early to pick a 2nd tier guy that could slip 15-20 more spots and leave us with potentially wasted resources. We finally have the opportunity and resources to get it right, we can't afford to miss this year with the top couple of picks and we need to stick it this draft. I'm hoping we continue our aggressiveness in this draft like we did in FA [/QUOTE]
