The real problem w/ me is James and Taylor.
I liked the Taylor move at the time but as an organization don't change the rules midway thru your deal. JT wasn't ever going to work out in DC. We knew that upfront. If we knew that upfront and changed the rules then we just lost a 2nd rounder. 2nd rounders are the best picks in the draft according to GM's. You get talent at a low price tag.
James was a waste of a 7th rounder. No one wanted this guy in the entire NFL but we give up a pick. I can hear it now, but it's just a 7th rounder. These picks add up. Yes, it's hit or miss in the late rounds but it shrinks your draft pool.

You are correct. It's only a 7th to be sure. But it is better to use your 7th (Chris Horton, anyone?) than to just throw it away.
