Re: Smoot Lays the Smack Down (Redskins vs. Patriots)
You're right about that. And the Skins mostly have had middle of the draft selections. What should be done differently to buck the trends?

Re: Smoot Lays the Smack Down (Redskins vs. Patriots)
Hall.. His attitude, effort and production have all been severely lacking for most of this season. I understand being frustrated, but after clearly committing a penalty to throw the flag back at the ref is immature, selfish and unacceptable. I think he's playing his last games for us.
Rak, where you been bro? You're validating the point of those who say you are solid to good but not great and disappear for long stretches. Raise your level. Santana, catch the ball. Nuff said. Me, because I was happy we played a competitive game, was thoroughly entertained but not crushed by the defeat because I have visions of RGIII dancing in my head and we are no worse off than we were at the beginning of the day in that regard.

Not saying all the players in the top 10 are always better but yes top 10 talent usually ends up better than later 1st round picks

If you can sit there and say you'd rather have the 15th overall pick instead of the 5th you'd get laughed at

The only stat there is when it comes to 1st rounders is that they have a longer life span in the NFL. Now stop and think about that. How many times have we seen first rounders hang around all because they were a first rounder? Had Jason Campbell been a 7th round pick, do you think he would have been given 5 years? Alex Smith? Joey Harrington? Then look at the "project' type QBs/players and see how long they get. Not even a fraction of that type of time. There are no stats(or none that I have seen) that say there is a higher chance of a "game changer" in the top 5 of the draft as compared to the back half.

Re: Smoot Lays the Smack Down (Redskins vs. Patriots)
Speaking for myself, I would prefer to win every week....always....every time....always, and let the draft order be damned. As has been mentioned GB, NO, NE, PIT....etc have done ok with it?

Because manning was the 1st pick and is a HOF JC was a late 1st and sucks. It's not a given I never said that all I said was give me a top 5 pick all day because of the other rounds as well. If we had a good QB right now or a rookie I'd root to win these games and not care about a pick but we NEED a QB now and our chances at MB or RG3 will be by having a top 5 pick

Re: Smoot Lays the Smack Down (Redskins vs. Patriots)
The only smack I have is for the refs. When is this crap going to stop? Just horrible calls on both sides. I was hoping that Fletcher was going to slap that ref across his face cause he deserved it. And the call on Carter was seriously the worst one I've ever seen. Some of those refs should've been fired after the game.

Re: Smoot Lays the Smack Down (Redskins vs. Patriots)
Unfortunately, morons like James Harrison and Suh continue to commit these penalties, causing the league to continue with this policy. I do feel that penalties that occur at fast speeds, should be reviewed. Like that PF on Fletcher, there's no way that you can look at it at full speed and determine exactly what happened.
