For Team Sewell
#49

This draft will be criticized for years. The only way the questions go away is if Chase plays mistake free HoF level football while Sewell busts and Carman is solid.

If Carman and Smith and Hill don't pan out, it doesn't matter how good Chase does. 

And if the season ends, and Sewell is voted Pro-Bowl and Marshall outproduces Chase, the server might crash around here.

I can't speak for anyone but myself. I see where WR needed help but it felt like OL has needed help for 6 years where WR was literally an issue for the past two seasons of Green falling off. That is what pissed me off then and still annoys me now. We addressed the smaller of the issues with a sure patch. Meanwhile the elephant in the room got a good possible piece in Carman and two later round questions.



The issue is X WR was a more glaring issue than any of the individual OL positions.

T was not a position where they needed an immediate starter.  They needed another guy to groom/depth, and they got that with Smith.  

C was not a position where they needed an immediate starter.  They needed a developmental player/depth and they got that with Hill.  There was not a C worth the pick at 5, anyways.

G was a position where they needed an immediate starter and they got that with Carman.  There wasn't a G worth the #5 pick, either.  The argument has been made that you kick Reiff to G if you take Sewell.  Problem is, very few T's come in and play at Reiff's level as rookies.  There is a very good chance that you just wind up robbing Peter to pay Paul and downgrading the T position for an upgrade at G.

X WR was the position where they needed an immediate starter and there was one available that was worth the #5 pick.  

Marshall likely was not seen as a great option for them as he had medical flags turn up late that couldn't be properly vetted and they were seemingly planning on only taking 1 WR.  It was very clear that they planned on trying to fill all their immediate needs and were not just willing to punt on them until next year.
