When I look back at that 2020 Daft that we picked Cesar Ruiz over Jalen hurts what was they thinking

But the point is that it's easy to criticize draft picks in hindsight, and even easier to say "we should've picked [insert player]". I recall scratching my head at the Ruiz pick, but what I don't recall is a bunch of SR posters screaming for Jalen Hurts.

The point I’m making is, why draft a Center for a 2nd year in a row? At that time, we needed another WR, Murray was on his last year with us so we could’ve used a RB, and CB was a need. Let’s just forget who was left on the board. Why create a plan, to draft a player, only to take an existing player who was BALLING, and want to move that player to a different position? The draft is already a gamble, so why double down and add another element of gambling to the equation? Makes no sense to me. Especially when it’s a Covid year and the possibility of Minicamps/Training Camps will all be different than years prior? There were so many variables going on that year, so why not go with a player that was already more NFL ready? If you draft a rookie (McCoy) who was protecting your franchise QB, doing a great job, why move that guy? Why take the risks? Make it make sense???
