add ahead begun best draft football gone interested nobody pick picks player players potential premier process shop team
The best thing for this football team was to use the first pick in this draft to add a premier player at another position. Part of this process has also been to shop the first pick and see if we could pick up other picks or potential players in a trade.

anybody best cares counts decision eliminate games influences outside score side win
When you're on this side of the table, the only thing that counts is winning. You've got to do what you think is the best way to win, so you've got to eliminate all of those outside influences ... because at the end of the day all anybody cares about is the score on Sunday. We didn't think it was the right decision to win the most games for us.
david draft free good hard high offensive picks position sitting solve tackle time unless
When David has time to throw, he does a good job. Offensive tackle is a hard position to solve unless you use a high draft pick, and we've used those picks on other positions. Good tackles aren't sitting there in free agency.
