Which makes it even more stupid.
THIS was the year we were in position to take a talented CB/S. The S position didn't fall to us but the CB position did.
NEXT YEAR is the solid draft for pass rushers. This year there were really only 4 guys worthy of being picked in the first 2 rounds. Very weak.
So we take a guy we don't need for a year in a weak draft for that position and pass on a guy who could come in and contribute immediately.
People don't seem to understand this point. The draft is a game unto itself. It's an art. It's not just who you take but when you take them.
Cleveland didn't just $3it their pants and take Johnny Football. They took (arguably) one of the best O line prospects in the draft, waited, AND got Johnny Football.
Need AND value. Not one or the other. Both.
Dorsey could have done the same. We could have gone CB or WR or O line in the first. All would have given us value AND filled a need.
