Who else can we get that’s of his calibre at pick #35?

We could have drafted someone at #35 and also signed a DE in the offseason. We didn't have to give up the pick.

It was too high of a price to pay. SF gave up a pick around #70 to get Young. That's good value. #35 is an overpay for a player like Sweat who is very good but not elite.
