I kinda disagree that teams are "made more" with 3rd to 6th round picks than your 1/2 round picks.
Dalton- 2nd round
AJ Green- 1st round
Boyd- 2nd round
Cordy Glenn- 2nd round
Joe Mixon- 2nd round
Gio Bernard- 2nd round
Tyler Eifert- 1st round
DreKirk- 1st round
WJIII- 1st round
Dennard- 1st round
Dunlap- 2nd round
----------------------------
Atkins- 4th round
Michael Johnson- 3rd round
Carl Lawson- 4th round
Nick Vigil- 3rd round
Andrew Billings- 4th round
Shawn Williams- 4th round
Tyler Kroft- 3rd round
Josh Shaw- 4th round
Clint Boling- 4th round
Preston Brown- 3rd round
Brandon LaFell- 3rd round
If you have to start this team over and can only keep the 1st/2nd rounders or the 3rd-6th rounders, who are you picking? Honestly. It's pretty clear that the 1st/2nd round group is better, even though we're talking 2 rounds (1st and 2nd) vs 4 rounds (3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th).
Obviously we can't hit on every pick, but we desperately need to hit on a lineman (especially Center) and the best chances of hitting are in the first 2 rounds. Prospects after that are usually heavily flawed.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
