Quote:Since there isn't a single position that can't be upgraded in one form or another, the need vs. BAP thing really doesn't apply to this team. Every position is a need, basically.

The BAP thing doesn't apply to anyone in the league because it's just a myth.  You don't seriously believe any GM is going to systematically pick a first rounder to sit on the bench rather than fill a position of need, do you?  You make the pick that helps put the team in a position to win.  If your star QB gets pounded every Sunday you don't draft a backup QB, you draft O-line.


To me, much of this thread is just a bunch of butthurt GM wannabes venting that the team didn't pick "their guy"...

What else do you expect threads on message boards like this to be?


Goes right back to cheering the name on the front of the jersey, not the back. A lot of so called fans haven't learned the concept yet.

Ranting and raving about the name on the back doesn't imply that fans aren't cheering for the name on the front.  See the above response; that's part of what message boards are all about.
