Well TAFKAS, it was smart becasue we were able to trade down and get the players we got. Jacob Rogers, Stephen Peterman Patrick Crayton ect. We have done that the past few years and were able to get players and still fill positions we needed. Granted a few of those players mentioned didnt pan out but Parcells felt (and so did I at the time) that there wasnt that much difference between Steven jackson, Greg Jones, Kevin Jones and Julius Jones. So he went ahead and drafted JJ. The interestin thing about that draft is Parcells said he had Julius on his board reguardless, so he got the player he wanted. I thought it was a great pick-up and only time will tell if he can stay healthy. If he does he will be very good for a long time, he has speed and power that marion barber doesnt have.
