I think we bought ourselves a year to get by in the secondary with Tillman and Coleman, without having to draft someone high. I could see us grabbing an OLB or a pass rusher.

Why draft high when we can get Boston's and Benwikere's in the mid rounds. We dont need to eventually draft a DB high

When I was younger, I always wanted skill position players in the first three rounds. My reasoning was that a team of athletes wins lots of games.

Then I went through my "Hog Molly's" phase. Where I wanted my lines taken care of.

Now? With the way our team is set up. I am all for BPA. With a lean towards big guys who are good athletes.

Other than Tackle, and maybe WR#2, we have solid starters all over the field. No matter who, or where, we pick, all the rookies are going to have to fight for playing time. This team is as close to be a complete team we may have ever seen.

      if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying

      So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
