Not in second
There will be a nice mix of need guys that are pretty damn close to bpa anyway

BPA is funny anyway. Different teams or people grade guys different and imo until u take the field and prove it u aint the best anything. How many guys every year dont pan out? When u lean heavily on need there is atleast a decent chance they improve a roster spot because there is obviously a guy already there that aint cutting it. Its a much safer way to go.
Of course if it is a really highly touted guy that falls mysteriously than go for it. But that don’t happen so often.

I completely agree with you on that.

The way I see it, BPA has to weigh in two ways: first you don't miss a potential All Pro one of a kind playmaker, second if you want to fill a need with a player rated lower than others available and you think he could still be there a few spots down the draft, you trade down and let need and BPA align (in a perfect world).

Again, instinctively, I've never been a fan of 100% BPA approach, since the draft still is quite a crapshoot.

My bad, NFLN announced him as a tackle.

[Skinsfanatic]

Another guard. I liked Braden Smith. However, Guice is still on the board!

[FrenchSkin]

Another G gone... hate it.

[vallin21]

Josh Jackson still on the board
