Man,everybody knows I'm a Giants fan but I have a hard time reading the message boards on NY Giants.com
talk about some unrealistic mock drafts
Basically, if you let a fan run a team, you would have the Washington Redskins. You don't win with big name FA, workout wonders and one trick pony's. You win with character guys, players who do their jobs and productive football players.
When you build a team you use the draft to build the offensive and defensive lines first. Thats the core of your team for the next 10 years. Then you go after a qb. The skill positions come last and they are the least important. You can win with a great qb, great lines and average skill position players, because the great line will make the backs look better and the great qb will make the wr te look better. One the same token, a great line and lb's will make the cb's and db's look much better.
I know that the pats attach a value to each position and they stick to it.
