But being willing to drop back 9 spots might mean you are going in with need first and foremost and the position(s) you're targeting don't provide value at 12 but would at 21.

Fill the glaring holes and anything can happen.  

I guess I like the move but why does there always have to be a big ol' IF involved?

Man you really are TRYING to find the negative in this.

We literally got a proven starting LT by moving back 9 spots in the draft. Yea its a bit of a risk with his injuries the last couple of years, although he didn't miss a game the first 4 seasons and played 11 in his 5th. 

There is always a "big ol' IF" involved in everything if you go looking for one. 

You wanna talk about risk? The draft is nothing but risk, picking unproven talent. (CedO and Fisher for example.)

We got a top 10 LT(for 3 Years / 30 Million) to move back 9 spots in the first round and will still get a top 20 talent that falls due to teams picking QB's way too early.

Really seems like a stretch to see this as anything but a positive.
