Like the picks so far but clear that Rick is drafting scared right now. We'll likely never know whether they absolutely needed to trade up to get their guys but he's not taking chances and think teams will take advantage of that.
how do you know? You said yourself "we'll likely never know"--which means Rick may have been right on the money. And if he was, then he's not "drafting scared", which you claim is clear. One side or the other..
That's one way to interpret it. Another way is to say that Rick and B'oB are identifying players that fill a need and are going to get them at a marginal cost (6th rounders). I love how everyone is saying he's "drafting scared". I doubt any of you are in the war room and can say that with any sort of certainty.
Rick is scared that he might draft another marginal LSU RB in the 6th, so he is jettisoning those picks. The more you know ...
