if there are 8 sandwiches on a table, one is PB&J the other 7 are dog shit, do you want first pick or you going to let a few others grab their sandwiches first then hope you get the good one? I am simply saying that at a position of need its not a waste of a pick if you genuinely feel that one is better than the others, maybe the league just needs to find a better metric for picking a quality kicker?

I feel like what this "Don't waste a draft pick on a kicker" thought process is missing is an analysis on what else you could do with the pick.  No one is spending a 6th round pick on a guy that they think is going to legit make a difference.  I just struggle with the idea that I'd rather have the 14th best CB and a UDFA kicker in the draft than getting to pick the best kicker in the draft and getting the 16th best CB as a UDFA.
