A better example than this would be, what do we do if a top talent at a non-need spot falls to us. What if, with no prior warning, Crabtree or BJ Raji is available? Those seem like surefire NFL elite talents, do we back off our draft board to go BPA?
I would say yes, if either Crabtree or BJ Raji slips to the 13th pick, I would draft them, regardless of need.

I thought about that but it was difficult for me to imagine Crabtree or Raji being available at #13. I suppose stranger things have happened.
There's no way for us to know what the Skins draft board will look like but I have a feeling that there won't be enough of a talent difference between players for it to be a no-brainer to go away from a position of need.
Whether or not the players I mentioned might be among the better players available at #13 depends on who you believe. There are numerous draftniks who think they would be.
I'm trying to understand how fans would feel if the Skins went away from need and picked a player who is not necessarily elite but who the Skins felt was the BPA on their board at #13.
