i would encourage you to go share the secret sauce to all of the NFL execs and staffs since they choose to prioritize their dollars and draft capital to interior DL, edge, and CB over safeties, especially if we're talking non-FS.

Lol you can’t compare this to building an NFL team. Running backs are devalued in the NFL, how valuable is an elite RB in college? Totally different structure in what is important and what isn’t. Our back 7 was a massive reason why we were one of the worst defenses in CFB for a 5 year stretch

go ask any college staff the relative cost of a good portal safety to that of a DL or CB

You can’t have forgotten Major Burns and Sage Ryan on the backside of defense already

cool strawman. no one is saying you'll have good defenses with shitty safeties.

but since we're playing this game, i'll let you enjoy your defense with good safety play but terrible DL that can't get off 1-on-1 blocks and CB that can't stay in front of offensive players.

FYI, neither are in Kiper's top 6 at the safety position.

Sir Louie T, you are only as good as your weakest link no matter the position.
