When your roster needs a lot of impact players, you may as well just take the BPA. I don't "like" drafting WR or CB every year as a strategy, but hitting on a good starter at WR is obviously preferable to getting a backup/whiffing at a position of need. In this draft I see Sewell, Pitts, and Chase as being better options than a lot of the much ballyhooed prospects on defense.
If they choose to take BPA and round out the positions of need with a bunch of low cost veterans, that may be the way to go. They could spring for several XSF caliber free agents and let them duke it out in the hopes that the line is of passable quality. The Bills brought in a record number of cheap FAs when they were rebuilding - only a couple are still on the roster, but the message was sent: no one is entitled to a roster spot.
