Of course it does. If an OL just so happens to be the best player available in each round, no team is going to draft nothing but 7 offensive linemen.
THE POINT should be that this Chiefs draft is a perfect indicator of what happens when you veer too far in the need-based selections. You get shitty picks like Ramik Wilson, and you allow yourself to confuse your board by saying, "We really like this player and he's a need... let's draft Mitch Morse with our 2nd round pick just to be safe."
There are no good 3-down ILBs except for MAYBE Eric Kendricks or Stephone Anthony. The Chiefs made a good selection in DJ Alexander-- take the guy with the elite traits and hope they turn into something good. Instead they compromised their shit with need and got Wilson. Good luck stopping the run with him. We may as well sign Mauga to a 5-year extension if THAT'S how we're going to draft ILBs.
