They undervalued need, and I'm happy to wager that after the fact we'll hear that they didn't think he'd make it to 33 so they jumped while they could...you know, the typical coach speak to explain away passing up other players.

I have never, ever said "draft for need" I have always said that it is a blend, and need is one of the factors. But if this attempt to shout "I told ya so" from your keyboard makes you feel better, shout away.

It's not the pick I would have made. I was leaning Tryon or Ojulari. Truth be told, when the Redacteds were on the clock I wanted us to start looking at trading up for Darrisaw. Compared to Etienne, the value was through the roof. Still shocked that Indy passed on a tackle, but I knew that we had to get in before them, because neither they nor the tacks were going to make a deal with us.

"The under valued need" lololol.  It's clear you still don't understand what BAP drafting is and and at this point it's likely you never will.  You don't look at need when you are making your board, you rank them from the best player down regardless of need.  Etienne wouldn't of been there at 33 regardless if they say it or not imo, Buffalo would of taken him.
