Yahoo! graded Pawnee's draft out as a D, and listed their 'biggest steal' of the draft as WR Miles Austin, a serviceable but injury prone veteran with WR3 upside. So of course they moved him for rookie linebacker and poorly named Kiko Alonso. Alonso may fit right in and be a solid LFL LB from the word go- but there is plenty of proven LB depth on the wire. Pawnee does have a solid set of WRs: After proven third year star Victor Cruz, there are known commodities James Jones and Darrius Heyward-Bey, as well as rookies DeAndre Hopkins and Keenan Allen- but they sold low on Austin, who would rank third among the six. It was an obvious depth move for the McFlys, who has compiled a glut of WR talent, and will look to utilize it to attain more useful parts going forward. The season has yet to start, but this is a microcosm of why Hill Valley is constantly one of the league's better teams, and the PJers remain mired in mediocrity year after year.
