I do agree however that going back and comparing player to player from previous draft’s is a nonsensical argument.

We had a stocked roster where one or two players could put us over the top. Payton tends to move up for the players who can fill a role in our system. Quality over quantity! I liked the move because Armstead is so fluid. No one knew he dinged up easily or would tear his Achilles.

We may take a different draft approach this year and actually trade back to get more ammunition. We need a lot of cheap contracts.
