Beane does it just about in every draft. I can just see it on Embedded again. He likes someone, is hyper, panics and moves up to pick a guy they think will be a good pass rusher. Meanwhile, the experts like Kierlien on NFL.COM say the player could be a good backup but doesn’t have the quickness or frame to be a good pass rusher in the NFL.
Rinse, repeat. As some of our fellow board members like to point out, the only first round draftee by Beane that was a major hit is our MVP Josh Allen.
