This seems backwards to me. 1st rounders are more accurately rated, so it makes more sense to spend your late picks on positional needs.
Yet, late round picks often have more and development time, and less predictable development time, so it's harder to assess what your needs will actually because of the lag between drafting a prospect and that prospect making an impact.
