So they spent their first pick in the draft with the plan of him splitting time with 2 other guys. That makes perfect sense. Yikes.
Is that really a better plan than say using your first pick on a guy who they expect to play every snap?
Yes. It is a better plan.
It is always a better plan if you want an RB--rotation or not--to grab him first chance, and 2nd round is good for that.
The value of an RB to this offense goes way beyond ordinary, standard ways of thinking about draft pick value.
They just spent a 2nd round pick to make sure they have exactly the guy they want to form a very good RB rotation.
Yay. Good for them.
....
I disagree with it, of course.
I'd rather have a guy like Bobby Wagner starting at LB full time than a rotational RB. But hey thats just me.
