No, that's not true at all. We absolutely did NOT draft for need, we took the best football player in the draft, in Dorsey/Reid (and really, 50% of the rest of the prognosticators. The other 50% feel is was Joekel) 's view. He is, unfortunately for positional value, a right tackle right now, which is a position that could doubtlessly have been upgraded in a less costly way. So how the **** is that drafting for need?
Seems to me, they had a board and stayed true to it, regardless of need.
So you can hate on that if you want, but history shows that teams that approach the draft in that manner tend to do better over the long haul than teams that reach for need.
