If you take more of the first, in general, they tend to be good players early but have lower ceilings. The later tend to take some time but have higher upside but low floors
I think we’ve done well mixing those two in the de spot. Karlaftis is a good solid De, but due to his physical specifics he’s probably lower ceiling wise than fau
It’s also why teams tend to be more open to trading end of first round picks for established players than cp because at some point you need high end players and you aren’t likely getting them by picking there

Unless you're looking for a QB or top flight pass rusher then really no. NFL is pumping out receivers and receiving TE's like crazy bc high schools are playing more spread offenses and the NFL has basically adopted it.
Sam La Porta
Tank Dell
Puka Nacua
Rashee Rice
Josh Downs
All taken outside the 1st rd. These receivers/receiving threats are there. Just take them man. And this was in a down year for receivers too.
We all thought this off-season that we'd have to seriously consider trading up for a LT and then Wanya comes in and has looked competent. Hell he's been better than Orlando and Smith for the most part.
I think trading a 1st and payoff dudes is off the table with Mahomes contract unless it's for prime Reggie White.
Pay the all pro caliber 26 year old corner on your own team and pay some money for a quality WR like Calvin Ridley or Mike Evans.
