They will live and die by their process, and so far you can't possibly argue with the results. I mean, going into the season with Moore/Taylor as basically your only two tackles was asking for disaster again, and to have a top 10 talent slip to you at 32 is a risk I'm willing to take either way. This isn't like the CEH, FAU and Skyy picks where you were reaching. This is taking a homerun swing, and I'll never have a problem with that.

Sure.
But what if we have a runner on 2nd and 3rd in a 1 run ballgame?
Might that be the case when we have just signed Jaylon Moore and there is a lot of reason to believe that he can be a good solution to the LT issue?
Maybe a more accurate situation would be a runner on 1st and 3rd in that 1 run ballgame. And maybe we're not in the 9th -- we're in the 8th.
Now a single doesn't win it...but really, a homer doesn't either. But man, it would be really nice to have the lead, so you're not looking for a single, but you're looking for that double that drives in 2.
in either event, you really don't wanna strike out. So maybe the HR swing isn't strictly necessary because the HR isn't necessary OR dispositive in its own right.
