I guess I have to spoon feed it to you. We already have 5-7 good DE/DT's competing for for 3 starting positions. The slots are full. Drafting Barmore would be a waste, because he'd most likely be sitting on the bench. You can only have so many players at one position on a roster. We spent most of our resources upgrading this exact position and now it's a position of great strength as a rotation.

And we now have that with Tyson Alualu, Dawuane Smoot, Ray Robertson-Harris, Jihad Ward, Malcolm Brown, DaVon Hamilton and Doug Costin.

So, in other words, you have to 'spoon feed me' because you made a really stupid analogy.  Got it.

So we have 'good' DTs.  How many are on the level of Mahomes at his position?  Maybe I could spoon feed you the answer.

ZERO.

What difference does it make????? I used Mahomes as the example of an established QB. The QB's in this scenario are interchangeable. I could've used Matthew Stafford, Joe Burrow, Josh Allen, Ben Roethlisberger, Baker Mayfield, Lamar Jackson, Ryan Tannehill, Derek Carr, Justin Herbert, Daks Prescott, Aaron Rodgers, Kirk Cousins, Matt Ryan, Tom Brady or Russell Wilson. Any established QB would've worked in this scenario. Mahomes was just the first one that popped into my mind. The point being that when you have a position with established starters already established for the foreseeable future, you don't spend first round picks on that position, because you're just drafting for depth. When you are 1-15, you spend high picks to add potential good starters, not backups.

For the record, this is an example of spoon feeding you concepts you should already know. The names used in scenarios are generic, it's the big picture that you are completely missing.
