Fair enough. Howevr, I am of the "dartboard" school of thought when it comes to the draft. Throw lots of darts and hope some hit. Quite frankly, though a bit extreme - if we drafted just O-Line this draft, I would not be too upset. Draft, develop, draft - a cycle that wins.

On a related issue, with the expiration of the CBA - what happens to compensatory draft picks for lost UFA's? do they just go away?
