Late picks do matter.

I won't deny that, but the fact still stands that he's a contributing player whose success percentage was 12 percent higher than the guy we had before. You can play hypotheticals about "we could have had X" all day, but the fact of the matter is, there's no guarantee that we would have taken any of those guys (and probably wouldn't have). We got a contributor out of the pick - that's all you can really ask.
