None of that "essentially" shit either.

Our LT spot is in great shape. Let's say that Albert is as good at RT as he is at LT. Let's also say that Monroe is as good at LT as Albert. The net gain in drafting Monroe is that you have improved your RT position, and the LT spot is still in great shape.
We have the #3 pick in the draft. If we were concerned with getting a great RT, we could trade the #3 pick for any RT in the NFL and get picks in return. That RT would also not make anywhere near the money that the #3 pick in the draft will make.
Why would you burn the #3 pick in order to upgrade your RT position when you could use that same pick to trade for literally any RT in the league, more picks, and spend less money doing it? I'll tell you why. Because you think lead paint is delicious.
