Someone made a post about Pace's early round draft philosophy and it seems as though Pace goes for super athletic 1st rounders with high ceilings but a gamble.
Second and third round draft is more of safe picks in the trenches. Best player this year was whitehair. My favorite pick then and now.
Pace has had a lot of success in late rounds and with undrafted free agents.
White may not pan out as a first round talent but we got Meredit and he is playing like a high 1st rounder.
I'll take any good player and not really care where they are drafted but maybe we should draft more conservatively in the first.
I was extremely against drafting Floyd because I think we had bigger needs and didn't need to move up to get him and spend a fourth. I also didn't see what others saw. I thought he was too small for the NFL and would end up being a nickel pass rusher at best.
I've been proven wrong so far with Floyd and happy about it.
Should pace change the strategy or continue?
I think he's doing well and should give him more time. We need to improve in third and fourth rounds
