We have a fine safety in Byrd, no reason to go after one so high when we have so many other holes. Barron may be B.Meriweather, or Laron Landry, why is he immediately Polamalu/Sanders/Reed? Prudent use of resources it is not, if we didn't have Byrd then I would be against it wholesale. For this FO to be targeting him so high means they aren't planning on bringing back Byrd, only way this move makes sense.
Is exactly what this organization has shown for more than a decade. Passing up quality DL for defensive backs and running backs.
