I would have taken Melvin Gordon. I think he is a more dynamic player and will contribute much more in terms of impact on the game. Then I would have drafted a nose tackle later in the draft.What does that mean?
I think most people would define "value" as a function of expected contribution v. draft position. "Value" should be relatively constant throughout the draft, so saying we could have gotten "similar value" later doesn't seem like much of an argument. It just means we could have gotten a player who wasn't as good later in the draft.
Well, sure. But so what?
The Browns also could have signed Kenrick Ellis in free agency. He is 27 and has experience playing under Mike Pettine. Ellis is a run stopper compares favorably to Shelton.
