Agreed. I am still not hating on that 2nd round trio at all- hindsight is a b. IIRC, that was two drafts ago. Our line wasn't exactly filled with world beaters, but it wasn't even close to how bad it is now. Samuels, Rabach, and Thomas (coming off injury, he played all 16 games in 2008 anyway) were solid.

The problem was the lack of offensive playmakers the previous year. Everyone on this board was complaining about the non-existence of a vertical game all year long, so we went out and got weapons. Ironically, the most grief during the 08 draft was actually towards Davis (since we had Cooley). At the time, I felt we got a steal in Fred (who was the best TE in college football).
