I prefer free agent defensive players and offensive players in the draft.

I'd take proven free agent players over draft picks for the most part.
Some talking head just proposed that the Chargers trade the no. 5 pick for Brandon Aiyuk, and then SF should draft Marvin Harrison, Jr. Seriously doubt that happens, but I wouldn't do it. Aiyuk is a confirmed stud. Harrison is just a great college player with lots of potential.

The only problem is you usually overpay for free agents. Draft picks are cheap for their first contract. The disadvantage to draft picks is that many times you develop them and they leave right when they are peaking. This is especially true of DB's.

All true. The only problem is you take a huge risk with draft picks over proven players.
