None of those were higher than 4th round picks (Tupou wasn't drafted at all). Day 3 of the draft is for finding depth players, not new starters. When you're pointing to 4th rounders as "addressing the issue," you're just reinforcing the point. I mean of course we spent our day 3 picks on backup players, that's what you do.
To be fair, I'm not actually saying they should've seen this coming and done something differently. I'm saying that NOW they need to see if they can trade Dunlap, and unless something changes both Dunlap and Atkins will be gone in the offseason.
