I don't necessarily like taking a G there, but by all accounts DeCastro is a stud guard prospect.
Look at it this way - would we have been okay taking Ty Warren at 11? I hated Jackson at 3 because A) he was doomed to mediocrity and B) his position value is ass in this defense. But if we had moved back to 11 and get a guy who's ceiling is not merely mediocre, I'd have been a lot less annoyed by it.
It's not the pick I'd make, but if you can get an elite player at #11, even if he's just a guard, you're doing alright.
I'd rather have Richardson or Tannehill (or see Reif or Martin slip another slot), but DeCastro wouldn't set me off like that stupid Still pick would.
