I would think sixth or seventh round as an investment i mean how many 7th round picks have the potential someone like Nkemdiche could someday have? He is an athlete so its not as risk as drafting a quarterback.


NFL teams can only hold 52 players on their roster during the season, there is no room to stash a player for 4-5 years on the roster to develop.

An NFL team would gladly keep a superstar 18 year old on the practice squad for 2 years as he develops and a rare guy like Adrian Peterson or Randy Moss would have starred immediately.
