Yeah, odds are your 5th round pick is likely going to be cut in a season or two. But there is always the chnace you'll get lucky.

Desmond King, George Kittle, DJ Reader, Tyreek Hill are just a few really, really good 5th round picks over the past couple years.

And hell, the Seahawks just traded a 5th for an actual solid player in Quandre Diggs. That's what winning franchise do with draft picks.

MY POINT, is that Dobbs has shown nothing to be worthy of anything, Pittsburgh was so impressed with him that they drafted a QB in the 3rd round a year after drafting him in the 4th.

Since the season was so young, if they traded that pick for a Keenum or Fitzpatrick type to stay afloat, I wouldn’t have a huge problem with it

Mason Rudolph was drafted by Pittsburgh in the third round because the Steelers had a first-round grade on him, not because they thought Dobbs was a failure. I love how the people knocking Dobbs keep overlooking/ignoring that.
