By sticking to my board I meant not worrying too much about position/needs from pick to pick.
For example, the drafts I haven’t been happy with are usually ones where we “get ****ed” defensively and I end up taking two offensive guys with 2 of our first 4 picks. At the end of the day though, they’re still good drafts. I just like the talent in those areas.

Right.
Even if I set the draft up to just ram-rod us at CB, I can still do okay at safety, TE, DL and OL.
There are going to be good players available. We simply cannot be beholden to the idea that any offensive picks are a 'loss'. If that's the way the board goes, so be it.
Take the best players and if need be use FA to fill holes. As has been noted, your year 1 contributions from 2nd and 3rd round picks aren't likely to be massive anyway. You can get those kind of mid-tier talents on reasonable FA deals if needed.
