*Grading the Draft

[RedCydranth]

Blewitt would have been there with the Cats next pick, i really doubt any team that has a kicker in place already would take him, only way would be to move his position. Outlaws could have easily taken Rove(they did take strike with the 26th pick), and moved rove to a different position. They are the best team in the league because they get the most out of their players, and moving him would be an easy way to get more out of him. We dont know how it would have played out, but I guarantee that if Rove would jave gone people would be saying the liberty were dumb because they didnt take rove at 11.

You're saying Blewitt would have fallen all the way to Round 3. Even though the Otters needed a kicker, badly (and he's an upgrade to Sims. Just because Sims says he'll only play for OC doesn't mean we'd not take a better option). The Legion could pick him up at 18. San Jose didn't know if you guys would take him at 11. There's more need for Kicker between 5 and 21 than there were need for QB between 11 and 17. The only one saying you made the right choice is you. Look, if Rove turns out to be your guy, that's awesome. I hope he does. But taking him there was ill advised. You did it, you're proud of it. I don't even blame you for standing by it. But you at least have to see why we all think it's a reach. I'll openly admit Burnsman was a reach for the Otters since RB wasn't a pressing need, but I'll still stand by it because he's a great person and he's going to be a great player. We could have addressed DT by taking Chambers or OL with Archetype. But we took a bit of a reach on a guy we liked. Reaches happen, but don't expect them to be graded highly.
