"After we talked about it and looked at everything again, we decided Mario's got to be the guy," Phillips said. "Once we determined that, it changed what our thinking was in the draft."

So with their pre-draft decision that Mario would be "the guy", would that explain why OLB was no longer the top priority in the Draft and why they didn't move up higher for Miller (or Smith), and why they didn't take Robert Quinn ?

With Miller it was give up the farm time, and we weren't ready for that. On Quin it was worry about his head. So we took the "safe" pick. And it is pretty evident that Wade thought about it, decided he has his best pass rusher already, so the rest was easy.

All us BS'ers will just wait and see, as someone so eloquently put it.
