its just not true. look at any draft. teams pick players based on the pieces they are missing on their team
the need may be very small, but a player may be too good to pass on. regardless you arent going to pick a player that isnt going to fill a need because you leave that hole on your team there and it starts to become increasingly glaring the longer you hold off on filling it
our needs at DE, LB, and DT are starting to show because we havent addressed them in a timely manner
