Thats true but at the same time look at all the guys that teams reach for. The reason there are so many first round bust is because teams reach for players that have no business being in the first round.
Did Craig Davis (a 3rd round prospect) deserve to go in the first round ahead of Jarrett, Rice, and Antonio Gonzalez?
Should the Dolphins have taken an injured WR that ran 3 routes in college with the 9th overall pick just because Cameron thinks he can turn Beck into the next Drew Brees? Especially when 8 of the last 13 WR picked in the top 10 of the draft have been labeled bust.
Should Tory Smith lasted till the 5th round (I'm not to crazy about the guy but hes not a 5th round prospect)?
Should Ben Patrick have gone in the 7th round?
The Titans and Chris Henry, enough said.
The Eagles and Kevin Kolb enough said.
How did Chris Houston drop so far?
Thank God the Giants wasted their 2nd round pick on a FB that wants to be HB.
Did the Saints need to take a WR in the first round?
I'm sorry I know scouts are there in the trenches but I'd like to question how qualified some of these guys are to make the decisions their making. With that said the Skins draft was fine, as other people have alluded to on this thread late second day picks don't make or break a team, overpriced unproductive free-agents do.
