Given our current draft position, there are several US players I'd like more. But if we could come up with a late first or early second, I wouldn't mind drafting and stashing. I've been a fan of that strategy for years. Why draft a player who takes 2-3 years to develop, and who's out of his rookie deal by the time he does? I'd much rather that player develop on somebody else's dime, so that when his rookie deal clock starts, he's ready to step in immediately. And if he never develops, you're only out the draft pick, and not the roster spot or wasted salary.
