With that, you also don't have the big dropoffs when players get injured.
I think, if it's a top half of the round pick, I'd strongly favor letting him go. I'd much rather replace him with our late pick with a guy like Marvin Wilson and gain a stronger player at LB or CB in the top 15.

Yeah but let’s address the elephant in the room...
New England has been cheating for a long, long time. They can’t be used as a reliable example.
