But, EVERY TEAM in the NFL drafts and thinks they are going to improve their roster via the draft. And we have the smallest scouting staff in the NFL. It's far from a given that we're pull 1 or 2 starters that make us a lot better.
Take Price for instance. He was one of the worst, if not the worst starting Center in the league last year.
Yeah, without sounding too negative it is a bit notable that we chant the mantra of building through the draft while we have a fake GM for life and an intentionally-small scouting staff. It's more talk than action, I'll admit.
