And they could very well pick up a safety tomorrow with that early 4th rounder.

Personally, the only pick that should warrant a response like what we've seen from some people today is a really bad first round pick, since a first rounder is almost always expected to contribute significantly and even start. From the second round on, it could go either way in my opinion.

i haven't followed the whole thread, but I know we get some "overreaction" at times. Lol

I think we made a mistake by passing on a talent like Brooks at 78, in a serious position of need....and S is becoming much more of a premier position with the spread Os and 6' 4" plus TEs who can run.

I like a mauling G as much as anyone, but we could've gotten that later IMO.

Personally, I would have prefer to see the safety position addressed in free agency (and not just stop gaps). Maybe they are counting on Phillip Thomas. I was a bit surprised not to see a DB picked in these two rounds. Would like to see one picked tomorrow.

Definitely agree on DB picks tomorrow.

I was torn after that Murphy pick. Part of me was going
"Man relax, a lot of good players still available and another couple picks coming up. Lets wait and see."

The other part was going

"NO, never forget 2008. Remember after your initial freakout you choose to give the three pass catchers a chance and how did THAT work out for you. Think how cool you'll be a couple years from now when this guy busts and you get to say you knew it from day 1.Feel the hate."

Thanks, sadly though even though its meant to be hyperbolic its actually kind of true.

Theres actually a video though of me shortly after the Trent Murphy pick when I went off on the Redskins front office (aka Todd and Travis). Luckily my friend the Arbiter was there to calm me down. Could have done though without the kick between the legs from Cortana.
