No. You just don't grasp the concept of value. 

It all boils down to how great the difference in rating between player A and player B actually is. 
There is an acceptable gap that can exist there that allows you to select a lower rated player at position of need, and there are gaps that are unacceptable in that situation wherein you take the higher rated guy because you'd be a fool to pass.  

General Managers routinely pass on higher rated players to take guys who they rate slightly less that will immediately make a greater impact on their roster. The fact that folks don't get this is mind boggling to me. It's how the draft works. 

Luckily, the Jags won't be faced with much of these decisions in the early rounds since they need help at 7 or 8 spots. They can re-prioritize their needs on the fly based on who is available when they pick.

Lol some guy on a message board saying Arians doesn't grasp the concept of value.  I understand exactly and teams think differently but I feel the same way as Arians.  It's an opinion and I just hope Dave goes BAP. I mean the rule isnt set in stone, if 2 players are rated very closely and one is a huge need the maybe you take the guy you have rated lower as long as they are very close.  But for the most part always take the highest rated player on your board.

How so?

The point is that no ones "Big Board" is the same because when you make the board, you factor in your own needs as well as multiple factors.

Who said everyone's big board is the same and who said dont factor in multiple factors when making your big board?  Lol, you go by your bigboard not another teams.  C'mon man, really?  It's not that hard

A lot of teams reach for need over the BAP, happens every year. I hope Dave doesn't do that this year.
