This year the DT class is rated high. Picking the second or third best DT at #23 may be comparable to picking the top rated DT in another year. Weighing needs too heavily in the top 3 rounds IMO can be a fools errand. For one thing, needs on a football team can change overnight. Secondly, overweighing needs can lead to a situation opposite of the DT class where the talent pool could be low in a given year. That leads to reaching for players and drafting guys that would usually be selected in a lower round in a typical draft class. I'm convinced that tight football games are won by having the most marquee players who "make a diiference". That's why I won't be disappointed if Gute passes on this year's lower ranked WR class in the 1rst or 2nd rounds and swims in the deep end of the pool.</blockquote>
