so...

a team didn't use the #4 overall pick to draft a QB like Patrick Mahomes or Deshaun Watson...

and instead drafted a RB named Leonard Fournette...

because they wanted to see what they had...

in QB Blake Bortles...

who they drafted #3 overall three years earlier... https://twitter.com/AdamSchefter/status/1300408036595503105
To this day it is INDEFENSIBLE to draft Leonard Fournette #4 overall when your QB room consists of ONLY THESE TWO QBs:

• Blake Bortles
• Chad Henne

and Patrick Mahomes & Deshaun Watson are on the board.
Imagine having

• top-10 picks 7 straight yrs
• top-5 picks 6 straight yrs

and doing this:

#10 Blaine Gabbert - TRADED
#5 Justin Blackmon
#2 Luke Joeckel
#3 Blake Bortles - CUT
#3 Dante Fowler - TRADED
#5 Jalen Ramsey - TRADED
#4 Leonard Fournette - CUT
