If you're going after the guys you believe in, they're more likely to work out.
One of those second round picks could allow us the mobility to move up in the first round to take a player that the staff covets.
I'm not saying yay or nay on Thomas, just explaining why picks are valuable.

Do you trust this staff to draft defensive players?
Let's be real here the 1st rounder is at the end of the round...would you have traded the draft pick for Dee Ford for Earl Thomas? And Ford is one of the better defensive picks of this regime.
