You are correct that neither of us know for sure if Ozzie got any calls or not. What if the calls offered decent value? Do you really believe DB was our #1 need? Why would you think I am thinking only of needs for the upcoming season? I am looking to make our team the strongest in can be every year.
We do have cornerbacks that get hurt as well as players at other positions that get hurt. Injuries at a position of need leave us extremely vulnerable, think of us having to rely on James Hurst.
If we had traded back in the first round there was good value at pass rusher, Oline and cornerback. I understand you like the BPA philosophy and it can be a solid strategy, but when you have little cap room and several holes to fill there are other options to consider.
