Premium picks should be used on playmakers like the Claymaker and J-Alex, not Elgton Jenkins, Kenny Clark and Derrick Sherods. Sure, there are hits and busts at every position. But replace Clark with, say, Cletudus Hunt, and the production would be extremely similar.

Try replacing the Claymaker with Frank Zombo. The difference in kung fu is significant. Therefore, gotta use premium picks on finesse playmakers, not fat Yokozunas.
One of your better posts, APB. It’s basically what I’ve said all along - O Line tends to be less important than a lot of other positions.

Yeah right to the idea that you see plenty of busts and disappointments in other positions drafted early too, but I’m fairly sure the most by a wide margin are O linemen.
