NFL Draft question
 

Assume you needed both a MLB and SS equally, and they are your top priority, and you had the 2nd pick in the NFL draft.

The top rated prospect is a MLB, and he gets drafted first.

The second rated prospect is a hypothetical tie between another MLB and a SS.

Is it correct to pick the SS, without hesitation, because you are getting the draft-classes "best" SS, as opposed to 2nd best MLB? Or does it all even out (because eventually in that draft, you'll have to pick an MLB anyway)?

Why would this factor in at all?

You take neither, because you can fill hat need in round 2 and round 3.

You're basically trading the 2nd best MLB prospect to another team for the best SS prospect.

this question honestly is entirely too vague and you're focusing on the wrong aspects of the whole idea in general.

Bugstud, would you pick the MLB, or the SS in my example? And why? It's a simple question.

So what? The second best MLB may be better at his position that the best SS. What if the "best" SS still stinks? [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

I said they are ranked equally to their respective position. WTF are you talking about? The SS is equally likely to be better at his position than the MLB. Why even bring this up?

Yeah, this question is a litte silly. The answer is no, you don't pick the safety "without hesitation" because he is the best safety in the draft. There is zero logic behind that theory.
