Or if like 4 of those things happen.
And the failure of the pick could be massively mitigated by Moore being solid at LT.

This can be a good draft with a bad 1st round pick.

Which gets to the point that a few folks have made -- is the risk THAT bad when we're not really living or dying on the outcome?

I mean...I guess not. but if it doesn't work out, there's gonna be somebody that one of us wanted very badly who ends up a very good player and he...won't be here. That's the risk.
