If he's too old at 29 in 4-years let him walk and get another one. I'm worried about how he'll do over the next couple years, not the next decade.
As to the draft the only fine favs on it are Stewart and Fairchild. But I dig that everyone appears to be of high quality and only 1 (Rivers) comes with injury concerns.
I'll give it a B-
For me it's that you're using your 2nd round pick on a guy you know you very likely won't be giving a 2nd contract to. Maybe he comes in absolutely pro ready day one but chances are it takes him half a year or year to get up to speed. I think he's a good player and obviously the character stuff is a boon but the age definitely is a negative for a player taken that high in a position where age does matter. It's not like he was an absolute beast and the only reason he dropped is age, he was still just a good player.
