why does this matter so much to fans? who really cares?
we talked about Parsons pre-draft most here not only said he was one of the top defenders in the draft he was a potential pick for the FO..
yes at the moment we have more of need for CB and they were first targets but in no way is parsons a drop down and as if they settled for him..they were targeting BPA and need if all 3 were tie they would be happy with all..
the biggest question is if Surtain and Horn were both there at 10 which would they have taken?..
well when there was an equal talent left that yes was on their board and they traded down and still got him..thats a win
s much as the CB position was need there wasn't much of gap in need at LB we lost Lee and thomas etc with LVE injury prone and JS having some troubles well
i saw in hindsight with the resigning of Lewis and keeping brown , really LB was just as big of need and we got equal talent if not more getting parsons.
theres no regrets from anyone at the Star nor from most fans, i had Parsons on my list of 1st round hopefuls..
no need to solve any mystery there isnt one. Defense was the target and they got that and then some..what was weakness or a question mark at LB may be strength..
we got KJ, Wright, and that CB i cant say or spell his name to hopefully fill a hole..
got a few fatty's to be possible NTs, some defensive line rotational types
id say all in all a solid draft..
so no need to figure out who was supposed to go where..the draft is done we have players and now have to find out which ones can play NOW..
this is like having your hopes set on a few nice bucket list cars on alot and the choices were tough and the list was Ferraris, Lambo, and McLaren..
well if the first two were gone, would it be truly settling for the McLaren? they are all pretty equal and in the same class..id say id be happy when any of the three
