Not bad for a guy who since his freshman year at Auburn has had 6 offensive coordinators in 6 years. Crazy to think this will be his first time since HIGH SCHOOL with the same offense two seasons in a row.

Cooley has been arguably one of the most underrated offensive players in all of football over the past couple years, so the fact that he was a 2-1 deal doesn't bother me one bit.

I guess all I'm trying to say is that for as many times as the Skins have stupidly pissed away draft picks, we do have some solid successes when we hang on to the higher end (rds 1-3) picks. And even though we traded picks to get JC, how worth it will it be if he throws 25+ TD's this year??

Other than a TBD Carlos Rodgers, I would say every one of the picks I listed earlier was well worth it. Overall we HAVE NOT made wise use of the draft, but some of the guys we've selected have become our "core guys" as Gibbs loves to say....

One of the reasons we have no depth is becasue of all the 2-1 deals that our FO does.

Portis 2-1
Rocky 2-1
JC 2-1
LLoyd 2-1

Funnily enough, of the 2-1s you mentioned plus Cooley, Cooley was probably the only one worth it (JC is TBD). Giving up Champ Bailey and a #2 that turned into Tatum Bell wasn't worth it for Portis. Especially with Betts already on the roster and the recent woes of our pass defense... God Brandon Lloyd was worthless, huh?
