The kid we got is good but damn, we could have got Treadwell or Doctson for a 5th or even a 6th round pick next year. I never understood why teams just sit back and watch guys who they want and feel can be an impact player get picked just before them cause they want to hold on to that 5th-6th round pick that may not even make the team. Now we will play this kid on ST for 2 years and IF he dosent get hurt he may get to play his position. 1st should be impact players that are most NFL ready, not freakin ST players.
This is where you are wrong. 1st rounders are not always the most NFL ready players. Many times, first rounders are guys with immense potential that coaches hope they can coach up into a stud.
Let me ask you this, why was Dalton taken in the 2nd round of the draft when he was quoted as being "The most NFL ready QB of the draft class". Its because the 1st round is your chance to get a player that can turn into a stud. 2nd and 3rd rounds is where you draft guys with lower ceilings but are ready to contribute. FWIW, some teams rely on 1st rounders to step in right away, but those teams are usually picking in the top 10.
