That makes sense and I do think we would've addressed it later. To me Stewarts production red flags are too big for the 17th pick. That combined with the fact that there were some guys with alot of upside that went in the 3rd and 4th rd. I just would've liked a Safety, linebacker or Harmin in Rd 1 if we were going defense but it's over now. That was just more wondering how we could've made the defense the best we could with our limited moves. A safety or linebacker rd 1 and edge with our 2, 3 or 4th rd pick.
