A month ago, Williams was touted as a perennial all pro.
A month ago, Fowler was the 3rd or 4th ranked edge rusher in the draft depending on which site you followed.
Last night, Williams wasn't even the first defensive player taken.
Fowler didn't suddenly improve his skill set over the last four weeks in order to get picked above the next JJ Watt.
It's not like Madden where you get to see all the tidy ratings in whole numbers and can rate and prioritize based on preference. (Strength 89, Agility 91, Smarts 95)
McLovin and company have interviewed, researched, and studied all of these guys. He has consistently said he looks at intangibles like love of the game, character, work ethic, and maturity.
With these components factored in, who says he didn't draft the best player available?
