that is, IMO, the reason why BPA is a myth. if you pick a player that can fill any kind of need then it is not picking on BPA, it is pickin on need....its great to have a player be not only the BPA but also a player you need because it solves both problems. but there is no reason for us to pick a QB with our first round pick this year when we have bigger issues

On the flip side, if Dez Bryant magically falls to 32, do you draft him? I say hell yeah. Do we need another receiever? No, but the value of that player at the spot we draft is too great not to take him and he would be an upgrade.

i see WR as a possible draft pick this year.....i wouldnt be surprised to see us take a WR at all because of how stagnant our offense got later into the season. courtney roby is great but he plays 1 position and it would be nice to get a player that could possibly play WR and return kicks like a percy harvin. i set my eyes on mardy gilyard from cincy but i doubt we go after him

Can someone explain to me the differences between a 3 technique tackle, 2 gap tackle, 4-3 under tackle? This is where I get lost.

this is confusing. a 3 tech is where the defensive lineman lines up. its to the outside shoulder of the offensive guard.

a 2 gap tackle is a tackle that is required to play more than 1 gap, like a nose tackle who lines up straight acrossed from the center and is responsible for both gaps on either side of him. people often consider this to be a 3-4 DTs duty but it is also the responsibility of the NT in a 4-3 defense as well because they are sometimes lined up head up on the center. sometimes they line up to the outside shoulder of the center and they are only responsible for that gap(also known as a penetrating DT because they only have to penetrate 1 gap)

a 4-3 under tackle? im not exactly sure what you mean by that. in a 4-3 there are 2 DTs. 1 is lined up at the nose guard position and the other is lined up at the 3 technique
