Its mainly because statistically those later picks don't amount to much.  There are of course the obvious antecdotes of success from those picks and even a HOF QB who was an UDFA.  But those are exceptions not the rule.  Jones level of production in college to NFL success.  I don't think he could exceed at the level without having a real work ethic. 


Lots of players get through college and then go wild in the NFL. College is a much more controlled environment. I would be hopeful if we took him and would like the positional value but don’t like giving up future picks, especially since we use our fourth rounders to move up in round 1 lol

Beane has some nice hits on day 3 picks. Taron,  Wyatt Teller, Benford , Gabe, Milano (technically Whaley), Diggs was a 5th, Dane etc etc

 

The league is flooded with day 3 star players

Beane gets paid to make draft picks I don’t, but is he meant to replace last years third round linebacker? Also he just isn’t that great of a linebacker. Good highlights but down to down he is too small and misses his gaps too often. Imo

My point is this guy really didn't have much more warts than any of the others, especially in size

CBS gave us an A on the pick. People like his instincts, work ethic and football smarts.

 

Sounds like a McBean guy for sure (and I consider that a good thing).

Who TF are these guys and why should we care?

 

They’re draft experts and scout nearly every player. You’ve likely read their scouting reports without even knowing it.
