Oh I don't think anyone looks for a lesser player - especially if you're drafting one in the first round.
But I'm going to assume you're making a different argument - notably that you'd rather not trade ceiling for floor. You don't want to pass on a potential #1 for a more sure thing who will be a viable #2.
But...isn't that kinda what we both were eager to do with Emeka Egbuka? I don't think either of us saw him as a potential superstar yet he seemed like such a sure thing as a strong NFL contributor that we'd have been more than happy to take him even if he's less likely than say Legette or Walker to be a 1.
(And if that's NOT what you were trying to say, I have no idea what it may be - are you saying don't look for a
complement to Rice but rather just the best collection of skills you can find even if some of those are redundant when paired with Rice?)
