How is that a bad example? I said this shows they didn't pick solely on value. They should rank him based on what they value (taking things like ACL recovery into the mix), then take the highest rated player, if that's how they want to do it. I'm cool with need drafting or BAP. It's Urban's job on the line. Doesn't matter to me. Just saying the didn't appear to do what they claimed. They took a 6.8 in the 2nd when there was a higher rated guy on the board. That seems like they aren't taking the best value, unless I am understanding the system wrong.

It's possible they felt that they could get Cisco in the 3rd but not Little so they went with Little

Urban Meyer is going to do things his way.  He doesn't care about revealing grades after the draft is over.  Doesn't care what others think about him taking a RB in the 1st round or not.  

Bottom line is that Urban Meyer has a history of success, which is something that this franchise has not experienced in a long time.  The roster was basically devoid of talent and needed upgrades all over.  The coaching staff is better.  The roster is better. Salary cap is in good shape.  

The Jags will likely only win about 4-5 games next year.  Some are going to complain and say that if only UM had drafted "blank" instead of a RB at 25, we'd have gone to the SB.  Not really likely with a rookie QB.  Just sit back and watch how things unfold. It honestly can't be worse than what we've had for the past decade.

This 100% Meyer likely doesn't give a damn if a few of his draft grades get out after the draft.  He isnt stupid, he knew cameras were in there and he knows the about the Hunt video they have been doing. Like you said too, he doesn't give a damn what people think about him taking Etienne at 25 either.  There were a few guys i would of rather had but we got some great players and arguably the draft with the most potential if players can stay healthy so I'll see how it plays out
