I have a question for ya, Gunner.

 

I feel like CBs have a very high value to teams, higher than I intuitively would have thought. Obviously the way the passing game and wide receivers dominated for a long time, they became more important.

 

But now that teams seem to be shifting back towards power run games, do you think we will see WRs and CBs start to lose relative value, and RBs and LBs gain?

 

I'd be surprised. There just remains such a higher tariff on the passing game.

I'm only just getting to Beane's presser. Just heard him talking about defensive tackles. He just said even a DT who is so dominant against the run that everyone in the stadium knows it is still less valuable than a DT who can get you 4 or 5 sacks. Let that be the end of the Bills drafting a big fat space eater talk 😁

 

(To be clear I think Grant is more the 2 and a half down player Beane was talking about who can at leadt condense the pocket and get some clean up stuff on 3rd down, but it does show you where they are on "run stuffing DTs" and it is not where many fans are.)

So if Beane puts a precedent on pass rush once Grant, Nolen, Harmon, and Williams are off the board (probably by early round 2) who is left who has so much pass rush juice that you would use a second round pick on them?  Most of the prospects profiles read about the same as Carters did from last year.  If you draft a DT because of his pass rush and he gets to the NFL and he's only good for 3 or 4 sacks and he's not good against the run it's kind of a wasted pick.  Even that run stuffer that you (Beane) doesn't value drafting can fall on a QB 3 or 4 times in a season.
