I think the entire concept of "VALUE" in the draft is obsolete.

I think it's simply a case of the pundits not catching up to the new reality. A QB that is a potential franchise guy is worth infinitely more than any other position-especially because you don't have to pay him like one on a rookie contract anymore. THIS totally negates all prior thinking and is the reason, IMO, that the Kipers etc. don't like Geno at #1 but will mock him as early as #8 and call it "VALUE".

Come draft day, they're going to be like Karl Rove on election night.

Agree 100%!! With the rookie wage scale in place the days of the high priced rookie bust costing a franchise for years is gone.

Here's what "VALUE" get you, 9 - 7 / 10 - 6 and lose in the first round for years and years.
