What are you thinking we should get for dropping down 10 picks at the end of the fifth round, a first rounder next year?
Maybe I'm undervaluing a 7th round pick. How big is the drop in talent between the last round and undrafted players?
What I think you're missing is that we ONLY moved down 10 picks. If there's nobody on deck that is a MUST have, you can afford to drop back and get more bodies.
Why grab 1 person you don't really want when you can grab 2 people you might not want. LOL You better your odds of having one of them work out.

I would be on board big time for Lefevour a QB that we can coach up in the next couple years while McNabb holds down the fort.

I'm a bit surprised that Johnathan Dwyer is still on the board. Not that we need him, since we have Larry Johnson...but he was productive in college.

True, that does make sense.

why would we draft another tight end it might be the one position that we are rock solid at.

I think it depends on the player.
The NFL draft used to be 12 rounds and there were good players drafted 7-12. I am of the mind that the dropoff can be mitigated by a good scouting department.
and, even then, you could still find free agents like Joe Jacoby!

He could be our 3rd TE and possibly future FB. He's a blocking TE.
