But when most teams "miss" on a first round pick it often means he just becomes an average starter instead of a star. Having a 4 year stretch where our first round picks included Ogbuehi, Ross, and Price just killed this team. There is no way you can recover from that without signing some high level free agents which we never did.
I don't know if it is better scouting or just luck turning back in our favor, but if Jonah stays healthy our last three first round picks are the cornerstone of our offense for years to come.
Nice post Fred, rep.
