That's where you completely destroy franchises and keep them in the cellar long term.

....like taking a mediocre QB at 7?

Don't run, you nailed it.

In 2014 the begging was for Bridgewater instead of Bortles.

In 2013 it was even worse... clamoring for Geno Smith for a #2 overall.

Neither was a value at the pick, and neither would have put us in any better position (worse, considering we'd have to have bailed and gone FA route even sooner than now.)

Never fall in love or take the blind "if he's your guy, he's your guy" nonsense.

Grade the pick. Take what fits your selection. If you need to, move up/down to match value accordingly if you can.
