Walter Cherry Pick

I dont pay attention to rankings. Although Rick and Gary seem to do this.

If there's a player on the board that a team likes they should just take him and not worry about a players perceived value. GM's (Casserly) that try to get cute and play the value game usually end up getting burned.

A good GM should only look at value 2 ways.
1. If you're at 11 and you have 4 players that you like then trade down to no lower than 15 and you're assured of getting the guy you like.

2. If there's a player you like that you like that has dropped for whatever reason. Then trading up and receiving maximum value for your guy should also be an option.

I'm a big proponent of trading back into rds 1/2. Because it gives your team the opportunity to draft 2/3 impact players from a draft. If you do this properly you end up like the Packers. (#8 Raji, #22 Matthews) Then you can spend the rest of the picks you didn't trade looking for depth players. Or if you get lucky and your scouts do a good job. Maybe you add a couple of late rd starters like the Packers did. (Starks,Quarless,Driver Etc...)

Rd 3/4 would seem to be about right for Moch. If the Texans take him. That means Wade saw something he liked in Moch at the East/West game. So I will defer to Wades judgement on this.

What makes you think Moch will bust? He's raw but very talented. Have you watched any of his games. At DE he has a great 1st step. (Very explosive playmaker)
