I think that when G-man talks about BPA, he really means that he isn't going to reach to fill an obvious need (like OT was in 2014, and we thought it was in 2015). In the inverse, he is not going to draft a player that we have absolutely no need for (QB).
And I agree that Shaq was a bit of a luxury pick last year, but we have him on the cheap for 5 years and TD is under contract for 2 and will be 35 when that runs out with a body that he has torn apart for us. Shaq is a need, and we were in the position that he didn't have to be an every down contributor as a rookie. For what it's worth, we are in that same position this year.
