Charley Casserly is actually a former GM of a superbowl winning team, and has stated on record drafting a Guard in the top 10 is not smart. But what does he know.

I dont get this discussion wrt the Bears. They couldn't draft Nelson unless they moved up. This is like saying you'd rather have had Leonard Williams than Kevin White...not really a relevant discussion.
I like Roq a lot. I see him getting better every week. I have a feeling both will have long, successful careers.

The legitimate point is a HoF LT/QB/WR/CB/S/MLB all have more impact on the game than a HoF Guard.
And Will is playing on about the same level as Nelson, and was picked in the 2nd round. Thats a pretty good point.

Nelson could play great for the rest of his career and I couldn't care less, nor am I mad about it. I just disagree with you on his value vs other top tier players. Our GM did the right thing and picked exactly who he should have. Smith was the best MLB in the draft and he fell right into Pace's hands. The difference between when he's out there and when Kwiatkowski is in is significant.

My favorite teams
Indy's 1st 2 picks... an olineman and a linebacker(pass rusher)
Our 1st 2 picks... a linebacker and an olineman
And guess what? All 4 of them are pretty good. Firm handshakes all around. Except for Omelet. When he puts his hand out, I'll grab it and fucking FART ON IT!

and Darius Leonard, a 2nd round pick, is outplaying Roquan Smith.

Lol. Smith has nothing to do with this argument.
Question is, if Nelson turns out to be a HOF, was he worth it at #6? Yes.

Again, no HoF guard was ever worth a top 10 pick. Guards are a dime a dozen. You can convert a tackle into a guard with ease. They are less impactful to the game than any other player.

Difference is Leonard wasn't discussed as being a pro bowl caliber LB coming out of the draft, Will Hernandez was.

I dont give a shit what's being "discussed". That's all bullshit.
Seriously...people have zero idea what they are talking about when it comes to the draft.
Chris Ballard saw what Leonard could be and drafted him.

Not if any other position in his general vicinity becomes a HoF'er.
The best guard in the league last year was undrafted. There isn't value in taking a guard that early in the first. Yes, he could be elite and mean a lot to the team, but if the choice was between spending a first rounder on a guard or signing norwell, I would sign norwell 100% of the time. There has been a probowl guard hit FA yearly now it seems like.

A HOF player is now a dime a dozen. Brilliant
