Sure, you might get lucky and you may find a player that will develop in a few years... but the chances aren't very good and Joe is obviously looking for players who can contribute immediately.

Also keep in mind that McCants spent most of his first year on the practice squad or on the game inactive list. A 5th rounder usually takes a year or two to get significant playing time.
