Evan Mathis 

Who was actually our third round pick iirc that I loved. Was shaking my head at the time as to why we let him go. To be fair, we drafted him in 2005 and didn't cut him til 2007, he then played for the Dolphins and Bengals before catching on with Philly in 2011, six years after being drafted, so it's likely a case of a guy taking a long time to master his craft. Still, it's a shame we didn't see the potential and stick with him. I guess the counterargument is for every Evan Mathis, there's a hundred guys who never figure it out.

*pointedly does not look at every left tackle we've ever started since Gross not named Michael Oher.*

Does Heinikie count?  Dude was very solid for Washington.  What about Kerry Collins. Dude was sauced with us then goes into being very successful with NY and TN. 

Went to rehab after New Orleans, NFC championship with the Giants then so so at Tennessee. Believe me no great loss when he left here. His head was totally effed up. And it was the best thing for this team to send him packing and have Steve Beurlien signed.

I will always wonder what would have happened had we targeted Steve McNair rather than Collins.

    • I am gonna believe it wasn’t us if the 4th round pick price is accurate. We needed 225 points to get from 19 to their pick. 875 at 19 to 1100 at 14.  Our 2026 4th was valued at 56 points I think. A future 4th has less value. So that wasn’t close to enough.    It would have taken our third and our fourth. Comes within a point of even.    Now, moving to their spot in the second round we could have done but after Miami took Rodriguez why would we? 
    • Yep,and Blake Miller have had more experiences than Freeling,Lions did not sigh a vet T like Walker,so they had to pick Miller.
    • I mean it's expected.  This is the NBA.  And they hate the Charlotte Hornets.  Flagg was also the guy "magically" given to the Mavs who lost Luca to the wildly popular Lakers.  Was always an uphill battle.  But the award is BS since it's not voted on before play-in starts. Kon probably lost because of the play-in as many people switched votes.  It was a regular season award, so this is some nonsense.  Kon also didn't have the luxury of taking 10 games off to rest up injuries like Flagg did.  If he did, he wouldn't have been nursing his back the last month.  I mean, screw him for being on an actual playoff team that matters.  Flagg took tons of shots a game, he was wildly inefficient.  Kon was a huge reason the Hornets made the play-in and turned the season around after Jan.   I think Flagg will probably be the better player long term, or at least the most impact.  But Kon should have won ROTY.
