So then we're talking about being afraid of drafting a bust. As I've said before, just because this year it turns out that there happens to be a backer who is one of the best players available you dont draft him? The only player thats been suggested outside of LT after the 2 top QB's is a CB. There have been even less CB's drafted in the top 5 than LB's and yet no argument has been made for him other than the drone like generalization "CB's are more valuable than LB's". I would make the assertion that in general DT's are more valuable than kickers, but I'd take Vinitari over Ryan Sims any day. Especially if I already had 2 solid young DT's. (before someone starts of course I'm going to extremes but you get the point)
