What is so anathema about it?
It's a risk, sure. But so was trading up to take Mahomes.
Risks are only acceptable on one side of the ball but not the other? Since when? Do you have intimate knowledge of Andy Reid's thought processes on this matter? Moreover, why must you agree with the decision?
You are literally making the true fan "don't draft a QB" argument. "Do you really think Carl Peterson would risk drafting a QB in the first round?" Ok, so he wouldn't because he wanted a team with a baseline of mediocrity. How was that decision in retrospect? How many titles did it get him?
