Something to think about.

Strange things can happen. Great players can come out of the most unexpected places.
Who would have thought back in 1981-82 that undrafted LT Jacoby would end up beating out 1st round pick #20 over all pick Mark May and end up being a better pro. May ended up switching to OG in order to make the starting lineup.
I think too much is made of the pedigree, height or speed of a player.
We drafted Malcom Kelly and Devin Thomas because they are 6' 3" and 220 pounds, but 5' 10" and 170 pound DeSean Jackson has blown them out of the water.
I just like that we finally spent multiple picks on OL this year....amd I like the TE we got as well. He looks like a bruiser.
We will have some rough times in 2010 on the field, but our FO and coaching staff is finally a professional group.
We will be fine. Snyder needs to be patient.

I've seen a lot of Joe Jacoby and Mark May, and S. Heyer is neither!

I was referring to our rookies and undrafted rookies. I never mentioned Heyer. Guys like Heyer are ok as back ups, but if they not starting material or young enough to feel they will dramatically improve.
