I doubt that the FO made a consensus decision to build the D. maybe the thinking was to bring in the best talent they could ? We spent a lot on the off. side of the ball the past few years ,,, young qb's JC/ Colt ,, wr's R.EL , Thomas/Kelly and TE's Cooley, Davis . Hopefully Heyer , Rinehart improve this year and either Williams / Bridges can step up if needed . I see this team only needing OL and SLB in the near future , maybe a DE , but I think that Orakpo and Jarmom are both going to be very good DE's down the road . Our DB's might be the best in the NFL and Hall is the " oldest " starter , 5 years in the NFL . I would say we are much better off than we were the day before the draft in April . WR, Thomas and TE Davis will have big years , R El will make some big plays , and we will dominate at times on Def and ...... ELI " you better buckle up that chinstrap son " its gonna be a long day for you
