I call this the… “I did what I want to do draft.”
So I went forward with no hesitation, darn the torpedoes—full speed ahead!
I found a taker for a borderline washed Tyler Higbee.
I found a taker for Van Jefferson in the last year of his contract.
Traded back and accumulated 16 overall picks.
I went heavy at TE and CB. Probably should have taken an edge earlier but I couldn’t pass on Darnell Washington. I really like K.J. Henry out of Clemson.
My only regret was not going deeper at receiver…but the hope is Tank Dell fills the void left by Van Jefferson.
