If you have -- lets say a 9 on offensive guy and 2-3 defensive guys 8.5 ... then you have to weight. BPA
is a nice theory but it works and also does not work
If it is a really lesser-rated guy, then yes, go BPA, say it's a 9 for offensive guy and a 7.5 for defense, then get the BPA
because the draft is a crap shoot you don't know that the "9" is going to be better. It's a crap shoot, so it has to be a significant
drop and trust your scouting/personnel department.
Alternate plan: if the offensive guy with a 9 grade is at a position that the Rams don't need (like guard, for example) then trade down with a team that needs a guard and draft that 7.5 defensive guy at a spot in the draft where his value makes more sense.
Les spoke about it in the presser yesterday --- value, needs, not over drafting ... if there is a top center at 19 and someone at 25 covets him ... make the trade as long as you know you can get a player you put in the 20-30 tier there ...then you have that guy plus and extras 3 or 2 ...depending how far back you go.
