Not saying to draft for position, like you said it is akin to suicide for a team. I really believe in this draft with the depth of certain positions if we are opportunistic we can secure those players.  If you go strictly BPA then you get picks like Muma.  (Baalkie verified this after the draft) I also feel Strange was somewhat a position pick, but have no proof.  Now if superman falls to you and they aren't any of these you certainly take them LOL

If Muma was good it would of been a good pick, and he could of helped us a bunch these last 2 years  but he hasnt been up to this point.  Same with Strange, if he was a good player he could of helped us a good bit last year but he was horrendous last year.  Hopefully they can flip the switch this year and live up to there draft postion at the very least.
