What is your preferred draft strategy?
I'm not fond of just sitting still and taking BPA. Although, as Andrew Brandt wrote yesterday, http://mmqb.si.com/2014/05/07/nfl-draft-war-rooms/ that strategy got the Packers Aaron Rodgers in 2005.
I'm not sure about just drafting for need either. That can make you reach for a player that isn't necessarily worthy of the pick. In NFLN's 'Caught in the draft' 1994, Jimmy Johnson was quoted as saying "I never really wanted to just take the BPA. I wanted to just take the player I wanted". That's when Jimmy went to Jerry Jones about creating some kind of draft trade value card so they could better figure out how they could move up or down to "Go get" the players they wanted. ![]() |

I have to think we'll trade down to get some more picks. That would be my strategy too.

I prefer that over Romeo's philosophy of "Avoid Bad Football".
