3 times it is reported a team jumped us to get a defensive pick. Once by frisco and twice by atlanta. We tried and adjusted to the results.




Yes I understand that, but there were plenty of good DE's on the board at pick 32. That was our greatest need beside CB. Payton and Loomis have admitted as much.
Just because guys we coveted were picked before 32 doesn't mean you go left field and pick an O-lineman.
There were still a plethora of good DE's to choose from.

Like who? Who would have been a good take at 32?

I'll give you the answer... no one

You mean all the ones that didn't go until the third round?

I think Willis was the only one who went before 76, and that was what, 1-2 picks before. Edit: It was at 73.

With the "premium on pass rush" you would have thought they flew off the board in the second. They didn't.

Hell Dallas admitted they reached for Taco at 28 (who wasn't even mentioned by Payton as one of the 4 targets at 32; Tak, Foster, Ramcyzk, and an unnamed player who went in the second) but had a second round grade on him.
