Detroit took the let's build the team and we'll grow Jared Goff behind that.
The Seattle Seahawks, what did they do?
It wasn't like, oh, Sam, save us, Sammy.
It was like, our team's good.
Let's bring in Sam.
He'll help us out.
The Philadelphia Eagles, they never made it like, oh, it's Jalen Hurts, and then we're going to figure it out.
They were like, damn, our team's good, and now we got Jalen Hurts, and he'll fit into it.
So I think that's the right approach, and I think too many organizations do quarterback before the team, and you're seeing one here where it's team first, like you're pointing out.
And I keep mentioning this, probably ad nauseum, that is, these are the kind of drafts that you look back in two or three years and you say, how did that team get so good?
It's because you're drafting players that aren't making headlines.
They're not...
you know, sexy names.
You know, you're just, like, all of a sudden, you know, it's a Pukunukuwa in the fifth round, and you're like, man, was he a first-round pick?
Like, these are the things that I try to tell people.
You can win later with drafts like this.
Totally, totally.
You know, that's what I think the value of this is.
Like, the Chiefs quietly went out and I think had a good draft.
They got defensive play.
