Quote:Absolutely no one is irreplaceable. You draft for value, period. If you miss, you learn from it, and move on. There's always another player.


It's their job to know when another team is likely to take a player. You weigh the interest against the likely selection. It's why teams move when they have to, and don't when it's not necessary.


What you're advocating is an Alualu selection, and that's simply indefensible no matter how you spin it. The Kaepernick, Wilson, Brady, Montana, etc, etc picks prove otherwise, that proper value (not overdrafting as you suggest) is well, priceless. You never jump the gun and always fit the pick to value as best you can. That's why if those players were "re-drafted", they would prefer to take them exactly where they went. As low (not high) as possible.


But then, David Hannum was right I suppose.
