Great article that explains how a draft board is put together, why BAP is gone

Quote:Here's why Alualu was a 'BAP' Pick:

 

In 2010, the Jaguars had several needs.  There was absolutely nothing saying that we needed a DT more than any other position.  We needed a Quarterback in 2010 too -- many people believed we'd be taking Tim Tebow if you'll recall.  We also needed a "DE" of which there were plenty available.  Had we drafted JPP, you would have called it "BAP" despite it being a need.  Because JPP worked, while Alualu didn't.

 

There's just no reason to take Alualu if he's not the best player on your board.  There were enough needs on this team where even if you included need in your draft board -- there were plenty of other options available.  
 

I agree with you overall in this thread, and as a general proposition in this post.

 

Just one minor point of difference.

 

There is an argument to be made that DT was a need considering we had already jettisoned Stroud and then released Henderson in the offseason.

 

Worst to 1st.  Curse Reversed!
