In today's PC he explained/admitted last year was an exception to this philosophy or rule but noted he stayed true to grades and took Butler instead of reaching for a corner in the first. 

Oh ok. I missed the presser at work today so I only got some highlights

If you don't somewhat address the roster you have then you end up with last year. I'm not saying reach, but if you have a high first round grade on a cah'nah and a runningback do you really take the corner because you grade him a '90' and the running back a '89'? I am skeptical of this.

You absolutely go bpa. If not, using your example above , after a few years you end up with a team full of 77 players. Having said that, I'm sure everybody fudges a little but by going bpa most of the time you can get away with it.

If you buy into BPA, and, you think there are 6 or so good picks that will probably go before 8, then you have to be willing to trade down.  BPA at 8 might be the same as BPA at 15, so why not pick up the early third or late second?

Let a couple QB's go before us and we are golden, until then, I like the trade down and THEN BPA

BPA is based off their draft board which is based off of potential, need, immediate impact, etc. For me it's just a fancy word to not share too much. Every team drafting say they took their highest rated player.

Agreed.  If BPA is a quarterback, we aren't taking him.  If BPA is a linebacker, we might take him to replace TD in a few years.  If BPA is a running back or DE, we take him.

I don't think he sucks; in fact, I think he's a great GM.  but BPA is an ambiguous term.  see my post at the top of page 2.  it's smart business, because it can mean whatever he wants it to mean.

      I want the following: LB - Devin Lloyd (our big money splash) I'm also interested in Nakobe Dean if we go the cheaper route. His size is a concern beside Wallace, but Dean is a Dan Morgan type of alpha leader of the defense. He's often called the heart of the Philly defense and would absolutely bring a swagger and be our field general on defense. We need this so badly and I'd almost rather go with him because Wallace is no guarantee to ever hit his potential, so maybe we go with Dean and find a Wallace replacement in on day 2. EDGE - Boye Mafe (SEA) I think he's a great blend of pass rush prowess, age and experience. We have our potential youngsters in Scourton and Umanmielen, let's add a vet from a successful franchise to bring some heat. Bye bye Wonnum....bye bye Jones. We roll with Mafe-Scourton-Umanmielen TE - Cade Otton (TB) Again, we have youth in this position w/ Sanders and Evans. Sanders is tracking similarly to Ian Thomas (age/stats) and wonder if he will ever be the TE we thought we stole in the 4th round. Evans looks legit, but more of a balanced/blocker. Sign Otton, who Dave is familiar with and save some money by cutting Tremble. Also allows us to roll Otton-Sanders-Evans in 13 personnel WR - Wan'dale Robinson or Rashid Shaheed I wonder if either of these will be priced out of our range based on age and what they bring. We do already have a 5'8" WR with Horn, Jr. so I'd see the argument against Robinson. However, the latter is still only 25 and just hit a 1k yard receiving season with suspect QB play in NY and an elite talent in Nabers on the roster. SEA gave up two '26 draft picks for Shaheed and he has stepped in nicely for the 'Hawks...doubt they let him walk. I also saw Doubs on the FA list and wonder if he'd be what we need. We need a separator that can be a deep threat to keep defenses honest. TMac/Coker are the bigger receivers, but not necesarily guys that scare a defense....would Doubs be that guy? SAF I'd like an upgrade here and wonder if we wait out the FA period until the latter stages if someone like Ar'Darious Washington or Jaylinn Hawkins lingers and there's a discount later in the game. Nick Scott can F off and I hope he never suits up for us again.

      I just can’t see Morgan as being under the threat of unemployment at any time this upcoming season.  As little as ‘winning’ the division and making the playoffs impressed me, I think to Tepper it was like nectar of the Gods. A milestone for him. And the team did play well in the Wild Card. That has to buy him 2027. I would think. Unless we start 0-8 or something. Which I don’t believe will happen.

      I'm not arguing that Linderbaum isn't a better player than Mays, just that the difference isn't as much as people might think. At least not compared to the difference in cost between the two players will be. In any event, I don't expect the Ravens to let him get to the open market.
