And what did Lap say about there being no issue with the O-line?

I don't care how many "needs" you have.  You don't let a guy with a second round grade slip to the 6th round.  And even if you do, you would be trying desperately to trade up to get him in the fifth before some other team does.

If you pass up higher rated players to fill needs with lower rated players you end up with a team full of lower rated players.
