Excellent point. I understand BPA at the top of the draft where the hope is that a first round pick will be a starter with the potential to be something special. At worst, you have young starting quality depth even if no immediate need.

In the middle rounds, it should all be about the best guy at position of need. It's even more of a crapshoot (Marques Colston any one?) so throw as many darts at the damn board as you can. No one expects a 4th-6th rounder to start but, what the hell, occasionally they do.
