I think smart teams draft linemen and sign skill players. Linemen are easier to project and take to the NFL faster. QBs and WRs are complete crap shoots and RBs are a dime a dozen. We need to focus on CBs and linemen in the draft because that's where you get cheap studs more easily. We could concievably use our first round pick on Dline and our 3 and 4 on Oline then do the opposite next year and have remade our lines totally in 2 years. Cheaply. That is to say if we do a decent job evaluating. It justs seems smarter to me to do that and spend the same amount of money on those 6 players than to shell out for players who may not be any better than what we can get in the draft.

Look at successful teams they ALL draft their lines. Especially the Dlines.
