Even while McCluster succeeds, this continues to be my concern about that pick...

An average about 5 second rounders become pro bowlers.

The idea that we should be able to get a foundational player in the second round, especially when you're talking about positions of high positional value, is completely overstated. Most hits have come from either picking conservatively (Guard, Running Back, Right Tackle, Tight End) or getting lucky by stealing a CB, QB, WR, etc... who ended up being underrated.

Most picks around McCluster and Arenas are going to bust and bust hard. Probably around 1/2 to 3/4 of them.
