Yes Gaither is a good young player, I like the kid.
But if Im running a team, Im looking at balance. I want my team to be well balanced and go from there. By saying that, Im weighing the teams weaknesses and strengths throughout. From there I decide what is most important, I look at the draft, and intend on taking BPA to go along with satisfying the teams needs.
If one has to weigh who was better in performance between the Oline and passrush last year. Offensive line wins. Offensive line didn't perform well throughout the season, if I had to judge the OL it would be satisfactory level. But I will say the OL got better as the season went on, which is a positive. The passrush however, was dismal throughout the entire season and it has been over the last two years. Offensive line is more of a strength on this team then the passrush. There may be some good passrushers available in the 2nd round, why not keep that pick and select the BPA in the 2nd, I have a feeling there will be a good passrusher sitting there when it comes time to pick. So Id rather see them address that issue since I feel it is definately more of a glaring need, but better yet, I'd like to see this team establish some balance. Go for balance. It's the best way. We'd be better off and build a stronger team down the road.
