Meanwhile on the picks front, the Rams GM wore a "**** them picks" shirt to their Super Bowl parade.

Picks are nice. High quality proven NFL players are better because there's never a guarantee that any of those picks will develop to be any good. Joe Burrow and Ja'Marr Chase are obviously big franchise changing picks, but they were preceded by Jonah Williams, Billy Price, John Ross, William Jackson, Cedric Ogbuehi, Darqueze Dennard, Tyler Eifert, Dre Kirkpatrick, and Kevin Zeitler before you got another big positive franchise-changing 1st round hit in AJ Green.
But it was Taylor’s call. He had to okay the scholarship and determine his abilities. Also almost all those guys weren’t drafted by Taylor. If you look at the offensive draftees Taylor has been bullseye. They needed a tackle and Williams wasn’t a home run but pretty good. Regardless I 1000% know he likes to keep his draft choices. With the salary cap you need your first few drafted players to be successful.
