Who replaces Bates or Bell if they go down? Who replaces Hilton? You see Hill is the immediate backup for all 3. He’s going to play a lot in 3 safety packages. So at 31 and 60 who do you draft that starts? You are right we don’t have a backup at WR or TE but it’s just robbing Peter to pay Paul if we’d have drafted a TE or WR early. Then no DT backup. See what I mean?
It's not about changing the picks. I'm fine with Hill I myself would've preferred oline but the way the draft fell the pick wasn't there. For me it's more about we should've stayed put on the other picks. I like CTB but I don't think he was the only answer. But even trade up there is fine I just don't like trading up again for another safety. I would've preferred to draft multiple positions. But after the last few drafts it's becoming apparent our strategy is to pick one group possibly 2 and then just draft heavy in that group. Maybe because we have a small scouting department so you try your luck with multiple picks at one spot.
Maybe that works but if that's your strategy I wouldn't go burning draft picks on top of that along the way.
