The difference in finding a capable player in the 6th round isn't that much different than the 2nd and 3rd round. While the 6th may yield more depth players than the 2nd/3rd round, it does give you guys who can contribute at a rate similar.

I'm not saying let's trade everything for 6th round picks, but they do have value. In fact 15% of the Rams roster is made up of 6th round picks.

And whereas the previous regime (Marv) would let guys rot on the bench, even when the starters were pathetic, I am hoping THESE 6th rounders have a real shot and get to compete for a job.   I can't stand Pete Carroll (teflon) but one thing I will give him is that he has made a living of having competition at almost every position and he doesn't care where you were drafted.
