I'm going to harp on this once again. The one glaring advantage to having the #33 pick, the first one on day 2 is that there is going to be a full night to develop clarity on who is available. And there are very good chances that we can take the very best player available for the entire rest of the draft. I know we are needy at Edge, WR, CB and LB. And those are most likely going to be the most picked over positions for top end performers. On the flip side, there is an extremely good chance that neither an RB or a Safety will be picked in the first round. Perhaps only one TE would be gone by the end of the first round as well. Could we go RB or TE at 33 and find our man? Yeah, I think we really could. And I'm beginning to think we really should. Give me the best RB of the draft coming in at #33 and never let him forget all of those that passed on him. Get that rolling ball of butcher knives we need. Or get that sure handed, big TE who can work the seams in the defense and grind out the difficult yards. There's opportunity where we sit, as long as we don't fritter (Fitterer) it away by trading down to take more, lesser, players. -
It's been a few years, but that was what i was hearing from people inside. Just a frustration from the scouting department. to be fair, it was only a couple instances that i heard it mentioned but the way i heard it or the way i interpreted it anyways was that this was a recurring issue. i can't remember if it was ever reported, though. -

This is well stated. I've often wondered and thought maybe there was a weighted composite formula that is scored that makes the grading quantifiable. It could also include intangible factors such as "dog" and "need". This is all conjecture and I'm dumb and blind as poo regarding what's in the secret sauce but that would be at least one way to approach it.
