Draft value is relative. The old scouting mantras don’t cut it anymore. Look at the money Norwell got paid, Gs are getting paid the market has changed because there are so few excellent OL which makes them more valuable. The gap between Nelson and the next G was greater than the other positions in my opinion.
-
Pass up a top three player in the draft due to position? Sorry that’s moronic. He is not just a G, he was rated as the top guard in the past twenty years, generational talent. Would you have spent a top 5 pick on Larry Allen? I would have.

Nelson was one of the top 3 PLAYERS in this draft according to many. If you have a little bit of hope that Luck comes back you don’t draft a QB that is undeserving. Allen, Rosen, and Jackson were the 1st round quarterbacks taken after Nelson and all have huge flaws. Bad franchises draft like you are suggesting not ones that know what they are doing.

He wouldn’t fit in Dallas’s scheme either (Anderson)

The whole country or USA Today? You can’t say those are misses when no games have been played yet.

You’re wrong. The top players on that team came through the draft.

Right, only time will tell but I see the reasoning behind the moves. Personally I think the defense will look more like the Seahawks than the old Colts or Bucs. Either way you need speed

What has Anderson done that makes him irreplaceable? He has a hard time staying healthy. His replacement was Autry who had a more productive year last year and is a better player.

You can find it ridiculous if you want but it’s the truth. They have Woods as the run stuffer. Not really a need for Hankins. Anderson is a position change both from a technical and technique standpoint. The scouts and coaches felt that he couldn’t make the transition.
-
Plus two months ago they stated they were switching to a 4-3 so if you were blindsided by some of these moves then that is on you.
-
What part of changing the defense are you not getting? They want faster players period.
-
Whenever they made the decision to switch defenses, yes. They want faster dline with the 4-3. That is why these moves were made. It’s not supporting Ballard, it’s understanding that the defense will be focused on penetration not either one of those guys strong suit. Anderson is a two gap 5 technique for a 3-4. Hankins is a run stuffing DT. He is not quick enough for what they were wanting.

Really? Hankins was a good player but not an all pro ie replaceable production. Anderson couldn’t stay healthy. Every team does it this way.
