Eh I disagree. If there was a perennial pro bowl Guard out there and the Chiefs used that 1 or 2 pick on him, I'd still be upset. Why? Because we still wouldn't be winning SBs.

No we'd be better off just taking the best available QB. You'd either hit and be eligible for a SB down the road, or you'd whiff and come back in 3-4 years and take another QB.

My original post said "if you have the QB" then the position doesn't matter, take the highest graded player.

It's not that simple. You have to look at "bang for your buck" in the draft. The #1 guy in a position of lesser impact isn't going to help you as much as the #2 or even #3 guy in a position of greater impact.
