Foster is an average to below average NFL starter, he isn't special, his new contract reflects the reality. Brown is really good against the run, he is a liability in coverage. His contract reflects that he is above average, to good, not great.

You cool with Vigil and Spaight starting 3 or 4 games next year?
Zach Brown and Foster were balling out last year when the DL was healthy !
And Zach Vigil played really well, what he did behind a depleted DL at the end of the season is underrated IMO.

Draft picks are always a toss up anyway, so I'd rather take the chance at a position we don't have a viable option than hoping to get an upgrade over what we have while leaving a gaping hole on our roster.

I get the logic but any position group can be depleted with injuries during any stretch of games.

So the long term strategy of picking the best player available is better than passing on superior talent to only fill a need. I realize need is a factor but passing on superior talent, more times than not doesn't pay off.

If the FO thought the next Luke Keuchly was available at 13, should be pass on him and pick a different position?

And no disrespect but Foster is just a guy, with a 2mil per year contract: https://overthecap.com/position/inside-linebacker

I see what your point is.

Then I'd say I rather trade down in order for BPA to match a need, and get extra value.
Mainly because I feel you never know what you draft, you're only guessing.

And as KI said, you can't have all the depth you'd like at every position. Especially if that means leaving a need unfilled.

This.

PFF graded him a 85, that's really high. I like that with a NT, means he's not only flashy, he's also doing the dirty work that only film breaking nerds see and that allows teammates to make plays.

If we get him and identify a G we can get in the first 2 rounds, then I'm OK with BPA.
