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.
Please just save this and copy/paste anytime people wanna have a tantrum about the Fisher pick.
