Some teams missed.  Kamara, Cook, Hunt, McCaffrey, Henry etc. aren't worth 1st round picks to you?

...if you know nobody is going to take them till the 3rd or 4th, why the heck would you pick them earlier? This is the neverending argument about BAP/value/targeted selections. You move to where the player fits, or at least fits better. If you are enamored with a player, and most think he's going early in the third, sure, move around in the 2th and maybe get an extra pick for the sake of sliding back. Wouldn't you rather have two possible home runs instead of settling for just one?

Are you saying we should have spent a third on JRob, since that's is in the vicinity of some of the better RB that happen to be successful?
