Not quite. Hit rate apparently depends on the position chosen

April 17, 2024 07:33AM
That seems to be this article's point. If you want to increase your odds of getting a good player, do NOT select a QB or WR in round 1. Pick something else. Instead trade back and get more picks.

Most draft board will list players by value, and very often QBs are rated as high as other players of other positions, yet they are taken higher. Assuming the valuations are in the ball park, logic says pick the higher ranked player. But, teams don't operate that way. GMs draft for need.

The good news for the Rams is they do not need a QB or a WR. So for Pete's sake don't use a 1st round pick on one.

  Here is why you don't spend 1st rounders on QBs or WRs

  Did they list the hit rate for other positions?

  So to be clear, you don't want to win Super Bowls?
