That doesn't mean the players that the team had didn't play at a starting caliber level, it means that the player who was available was so elite that it would be foolish to pass him up.
This is a different argument. We needed Parsons for the same reason we needed Sauce, Ballard has struck out on drafting pass rushers. Once we recognize we aren't going to get players through the draft then I guess building the team thru trades and free agency is the only option left. With the cuphoard as bare as is for us trading for Parsons or signing Hendrickson make sense, but only because of our inability to draft difference makers on defense. So while I agree with you considering the circumstances we are in I want whomever is responsible for putting us in those circumstances gone.
