Snead also likes to go the "cheap" route in building an offensive line and while I'd love to see them take a stud offensive lineman early, they'll almost certainly use 36 on a DE, WR, RB or CB. Sigh.

Got to us higher picks on Oline

But oddly, we have a lot, and it does make some sense, no answer is going to be 100% right or wrong
that want to take a running back at 36.

Cannot add another toy until oline gets some better talent.

As far as drafting for need--not sure that is what it has been.
More like drafting for toys.

Tutu is poster child for that. The "need" was online---
and they went with a toy.

Same with Akers. The need was not a running back, they
can be had in 3rd 4th round...they went for a toy.

Jefferson? A another toy.

Sure, you want some toys but that's a lot of toys on the second round
without the online...

sometimes you have to get studs up front and there is where I
criticize McSnead - too many toys, not enough oline.
