This makes no sense.
If we need an NT, we need an NT. Signing Melton has no bearing on that.
We needed one before, we need one now. If Nix is a good pick after we signed Melton, he was a good pick before we signed Melton, too, because he's filling a completely different hole.
That being said, I agree it'd be a pick I'd get behind. Ideally, if we could trade down and get another pick, too, that'd be even better.
Then you could do something like:
Nix in the first (trade down)
DE in the 2nd
FS in the 3rd
DE/DT in the 3rd (acquired pick)
Starting to get some talent there now.
