Sound logic . If this off season has proven anything Depth is hugely important. At a moments notice a position of strength can be depleated and you need backups to step up.
Martin & Lemonier weren't first-round picks. If they were, then that would've been a waste of extremely-high draft value. You don't spend a first-round pick on a backup safety.
Do me a favor
Go back and look at that roster the year we drafted Ward
Look at our depth, contracts, and average age per position
Then re-visit what happened during that draft day and tell me what a better option would have been.
I'll save you the trouble, there wasn't a better option
