Yes. It's confusing to me. I... I... I feel as if the universe is somehow out of balance and it has me unsettled.
THE FO SUCKS!! SIGNING THIS HEADCASE AND M WILLIAMS REEKS OF DESPARATION AND LACK OF PLANNING! IF THEY HAD USED MORE THAN 5 OF THERE LAST
40 DRAFT PICKS ON LINEMEN, WE WOULDN'T NEED THIS HEADCASE!!
ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. I feel so much better.
In reality, good signing (risk/reward thing). The critique about the draft picks is legit though. Since 2003 we have drafted !!five!! Olineman out of 40 picks:
2003 Rnd 3(81) Derrick Dockery
2004 Rnd 5 (151) Mark Wilson
2004 Rnd 6(180) Jim Molinaro
2006 Rnd 7(230) Kili Lefotu
2008 Rnd 3(96) Chad Rinehart
In that same time we have drafted:
8 DB's
4 DLmen
8 LB's
3 RB's
4 QB's
3 TE's
4 WR's
Punter.
Just from a distribution point of view, drafting one OLman more than QB's seems to me to be wrong. Part fo this comes from trading picks but, in the time span covered, if we had traded no picks and gotten no compensatory picks, we would have only had 42 picks. Of the 34 picks made prior to this year, 19 are still with the team (9 from last year's 10 picks).
BPA is great, BUT sometimes you gotta plan ahead and ignoring the oline year in and year out requires us to find diamands in the rough or depend on guys like Fabini.
