I think it's fruitless to speculate one way or the other.
Having multiple cards is how you end up drafting like the Bengals.....oops not that Williams, I meant the other Williams.
Whether he was always the plan or not at #36, I do believe the Dolphins got the better overall player.
How quick the pick comes in has nothing to do with that player being your top player overall you've been waiting for.
It just means you aren't considering or receiving offers to trade down. It means the top player on your board has more value to you than trading down.
Doesn't matter if the team before you took your guy, if you like the next man up enough to not trade out you can get the pick in just as fast.
And miss out on a Moss, Sweetness, or Larry Little. Cmon, man! I think that kind of diversity is what makes America special! How about Doak somehow becomes the next LaGarrette BlountI didn't want Williams or Jenkins. Given the trade in front of us it seemed obvious the Broncos thought we would take the running back, then as soon as we handed in the card so quickly it seemed equally obvious Denver was wrong.
I can't say I expected Holland but as soon as I heard the name I loved the pick. There is great value in the Pac 12. Tremendous athletes. I wouldn't mind a self-imposed system of drafting from within the SEC, Pac 12, Big Ten and ACC only.
