He sprang to mind as he was sort of a target on my personal wishlist that year.  RB and S may be on more similar footing draft-value-wise than I indicated, though the undercurrent/agenda of "pass, pass, pass" being pushed by the league could change that over time.

I still cringe at taking a RB that high though! 

Dunno if sarcasm or serious...but I don't think my analysis is "superior" here for the record.  You are among many very knowledgeable and rational fans here who have made very good arguments pro and con.

But your stance begs the question:  Are there ever instances where a player's talent at a "dime a dozen" position justifies a high draft pick in your estimation?

By the way...lots of civility expressed in this thread.  Am I on the right board?  

Serious, not sarcastic. 

There are definitely players that you might deem somewhere approaching "generational talent"  -  and that makes their positional value go out the window on draft day. 

I happened to be in that minority that thought LF27 came close to that in certain traits and fell well short of it in others, so he didn't make that outlier list for me personally. 

RE: civility - 
winning really does help everything!
