Options




During Brent Grimes press conference Jason Licht shed a little light on his way of working the draft. He was asked how the draft would be affected since they have now addressed some of their needs and Licht came back with a quick direct answer.
"In the Draft were going to have the same approach. Its going to be best player, wether were picking at 9, moving up or moving back. Its going to be the best player that makes us better."
He later went on to comment about how having "quality" players like Brent Grimes and Robert Ayers, can open up different options in the draft.
"Helps give us options and we always like options here."
 Funny how Licht talks about moving up or down in the draft. Moving down would obviously produce more options in the form of additional picks but for that to happen it takes two to tango. The defense all though improved with the additions of Ayers and Grimes still needs an influx of talent and the best way to do that without over paying in free agency is through the draft. The strength of this draft is on defense so lets see if Licht decides to wheel and deal to pick up some more draft picks to drive competition up across the board.
