e’re into April and that means it’s NFL Draft month. It also means it’s time to post the updated “Big Blue View Rules for Draft Success.’
If you aren’t familiar with these rules, I created this guide to my draft philosophy a few years ago. Each year the rules get tweaked with new examples and, on occasion, modified to reflect the changing realities of the NFL. I also try to relate them to decisions currently face as well as ones they have made in recent years.
1. Draft ‘value’ over perceived need
I always push back against the idea that the Giants need to take position A in Round 1, position B in Round, position C in Round 3, etc.
