You're now counting Jake Matthews and CJ Mosley as lesser LBs or OL? And we aren't arguing over whether Elliot is that good, that's not the premise. And why are you arguing taking two guys over one?
I think this has jumped the track.
'Lesser' is an abstract that got pushed out. I was looking up the last time I posted a mock and in it I sold the draft for those two, and that idea manifested here - my bad. You tell me who's lesser. It doesn't change my opinion. We already (when healthy) have the best runningback in the league. We wouldn't be much (if any) better with the next best back in the league - Peterson. Taking a back in the first round who would probably never reach those two guys ... doesn't make much sense to me. Runningbacks don't carry teams anymore. Guys who can protect the quarterback and defend the middle of the field, they have an accumulative effect much greater than a singular talent ... in my humble opinion.
Edit: I seriously need to learn when it's time to postpone my circular ramblings. Not my finest series of posts lol.
