We actually seem to do much better with UDFA's than with late round picks, anyway.

To be honest every player round 1-7 have a great chance at starting. If they outplay the next guy they start or become a backup. Competition is the only way to prove their worth and improve a team, Armstead and Colston wasn't drafted in early rounds, If I recall right 7th round, and if not given a chance would have not been able to do great. Law of average still applies, more picks the better the chance at hitting on a gem or even a hidden stud. Payton screwed the pooch or has just become lazy with giving picks away for certain players as much as he does it.
