Every time I try to move on I get dragged back in again. Dad poster after poster have tried to explain to you that the price to move up from 9 to 5 is substantial. Yet you continue to stick to your guns that there is no difference in value between the 5th pick and the 9th. If you don't get it by now you obviously aren't going to get it so can we PLEASE move on?

I was right, you just don't get it. There is a chart assigning value to each pick. Clearly the 5th rated player has more value than the 9th because he has been determined to be the better prospect. A trade is not necessary to determine value, it's already been determined by the ranking order. I don't know how large that gap is this year between the 5th rated player and the 9th. But 2 things I do know is that it exists and you sure don't know how large it is either. But to claim it does not exist is nothing short of idiotic. Sorry, that's the truth.
If you want to ignore the value chart and all the other supporting evidence that the 5th pick is more valuable than the 9th then be my guest. I really do not feel like arguing the obvious anymore.
Peace.

I have said this before, but maybe you didnt see it ...or chose not to believe it.....BUT....... Just becasue the "experts say his is 9 doenst mean Jack shit!!! What matters is what scott thinks...If he takes him at 5...I would be in the assumption that he had him rated at 5 or 6 or so....Hell...he could be rated 3 as far as me, you , or anyone knows...In which case, we are getting a STEAL in the 5 hole......
to use your analagy...we are paying for a hamburger, but getting a double hamburger with Cheeses and all the fixings
Oh I totally get that. And I have said about 20 times now if SM takes him at 5 I'm fine with it because I know that he considers him the BPA at the 5 spot. I have also said almost as many times that the only exception to BPA rule is the QB position. I have mentioned the Colts and Luck, the Packers with Rodgers and I have said at least twice that nobody considers the 2 QBs the best players but teams reach on QBs because they are so important. But this has apparently fallen on deaf ears and it's kind of tough to argue with posters who chose to ignore my posts.
But we aren't talking about QBs with the Redskins pick, we are talking about an OL vs and other positions. So bringing up Winston and MM is a waste of bandwith, it has nothing to do with what we are disagreeing about. What I have been arguing for too long is the ridiculous notion that there is no difference between the 5th best player and the 9th best player and that the 5th pick in the draft is worth the same as the 9th pick. That is just wrong and I'm not backing off of my position on that. To claim the draft value chart is crap is simply ignorance. It's the Bible of the draft room and every team references it.
and if the did then explain the RG3 trade ? the chart is a guideline at best guideline
to bow down to it and worship it is the play of a lost sheep big difference to bible and guideline
to tell me that deon sanders was leaps and bonds better or worse then barry sanders is foolsplay you couldnt have gone wrong with either

I understand what you are saying..about the QB.....I too believe the 5th pick is worth way more then the 9th pick...but ......just becasue alot of MOCKS have Sharef at 9....doesnt make him him the 9th best player in the draft......I believe he is better then the 9th best player in the draft....taking out the qbs at 1 and 2.....would make him at 7.......and if they take him at 5 instead of 7....not as bad as taking the mystical #9 player.....and I believe sharef is defiently better then the some of the people being mocked ahead of him.......
I live in IOWA and have seen him play alot (not a hawkeye fan)...but I have to admitt...the guy is pretty fucking good...and that pains me to say as an AVID Hawkeye HATER!!!!! He is a finisher, and a pancake blocker!! He was injured all last year and played through the knee injury......He could be a very good RT in the NFL... LT...very doubtful, but he can handle the right side im sure....and if he can't...then well slide him inside, and we have or RG job sewn up for years to come
None of that Logic stuff Wate. We are not allowed to use that when discussing Scherff. The concensus of the minds of power is, we either trade down, or take a pass rusher. It has been deemed that anything else is unacceptable. [/end sarcasm]

Again if you feel he is the 5th best player and want him as the pick I can't argue. But once again this has not been the discussion. I have been arguing the claim that there is no difference between the 5th best player and the 9th best player or in your case (at least early in the discussion) it's OK to grab a lower rated player if it fills a glaring need. The other disagreement is the wisdom of taking a guard with the 5th overall pick, which is the position many project him to probably end of playing including the poster you just quoted. Again you had no problem with taking a guard at 5 because it fills a need, I continue to maintain you can get close to the same player in round 2-3 will landing a possible great player at 5 in addition to the solid guard.
Again totally different discussions than what you are referring to here.
Well those same "experts" said Gallery was a can't miss LT for the team that took him for 10+ years....and....he was moved to guard..........the fucking "experts" may know a little more then us just becasue they have the time and tools to "analize" these players...but in reality....they are giving their opinion, and nothing more.....
I didnt say he would be a guard.....said that would be a fall back option....If taken at #5....he would be taken to be a RT...with the fallback at guard....and as I just stated above.....this has happened before......and more then my 1 from above
And again it's widely acknowledged that the Raiders overpaid for a guard. And this is a very real possibility, that Scherff needs to be moved to guard. Steve Hutchison was the best guard prospect in our lifetime and he went mid teens. IMO you don't use the 5th pick on a player that could very well end up as a guard. Shark and others disagree, even if he ends up at guard it was a good pick is his position due to the need. I just see it differently and so does everyone who understands what the word value means.
