Bain v Downs

That's dumb. Your logic is the exact opposite of all the good defenses in the league right now lol

clearly you do not look carefully at those defenses

None of the good ones invest heavily in safeties lol. It is very simple.

expense does not always mean how good they are
Or do you forget all the expensive QBs that are duds?

Expense is indicative of what those teams value, not how good the players are. The good defenses (Houston, Minnesota, Seattle, Cleveland) predominantly value passrushers and corners. Having good safeties is nice, but they do not use premium draft capital on them.

If that becomes our options - you are skipping down the isle to tuen in the card. Cannot go wrong with either, but I would go Bain.

why don't you look at the bust rate for premium safety picks vs edge rushers?

There aren't enough safeties drafted with "premium" picks to do that.

The fact that so many Edges miss in the first round proves the point that they are more valuable because teams are willing to take a risk on them.

Downs all day every day. He's generational.

Literally a dream scenario, either or

This, you could flip a coin and I would still be doing cartwheels across the room.

Bain because DB's aren't needed for defending pases thrown from horizontal QB's

LOL, stop DUO!
