Actually, there are multiple alternatives. For example:
1.) BB felt the need was greater elsewhere. In such a case, he could be right or wrong in his analysis of his team.
2.) BB felt he could pick up someone at that position later in the draft. Again, he could be right or wrong.
3.) BB felt there were adequate players available in free agency, that he'd be able to get. Again, he could be right or wrong.
4.) BB felt there were adequate players available in trade, that he'd be able to get. Again, he could be right or wrong.
5.) BB just blew the pick, despite being a generally qualified person.
One of the problems with being a 'homer' or a 'hater' is that you often get stuck in a binary situation, where everything has to be a "1" or a "0". Some things are all or nothing, black or white. Sports fandom doesn't need to be one of those things.
And the one problem with beng a critic, you think in retrospect you could have done better.
I will accept that BB is imperfect but I will accept that BB did a better job than Dues Irae would have from his armchair QB position.
