No 1st round pick? We're ahead of the game...

A lot has been made of not having a first round pick this year. Of course we all know we got two last year so really, its like picking a first round Tackle this year who already has a year's experience.

We're the only team in the league picking a veteran in the first round this year!

Nice spin! I also think that if there was ever a year to be happy about not having a 1st round pick it is this one. I do wish however that our 2nd round pick was a little higher up...

if we had a higher pick it would have meant that we were worse last year.

Anyone else sort of not that jazzed about the Draft this year? I mean, if Pep stays, we'll be watching for a good three hours before our first pick (guess). I'd almost rather just read a recap that night.

How nice would it be to have a top 3 pick, to get Arron Curry?

Oh I know, I was commenting more on how it looks like there is going to be a lot of quality guys in the early to mid 2nd round that I would prefer to have than the guys going in the first round. If the Panthers were to trade up into that position I think the quality would be just as good as drafting in the first round.

Davis, Beason and Curry would equal the great LB cores of all time IMO.

If Stewart or Otah was in the 09 draft they would be the #1 overall pick or a top 5. I keep saying we have had the best 09 draft then any other team out there.

If we could add say NE's early 2nd and another....I'd be stoked. Connor Barwin, Hood, and Herman Johnson

Naaa.. the draft is fun. Its fun to watch a star be born.

Thats why I like Williams so damn much. He was "my" wish pick for us and then we got him. So the odds of that happening are slim, its kinds like if i was the coach/gm its the decision i would have made, so to see it work out is all the better.

It reinforces the fact that I think i am good on judging what it takes to be a good football player.

And I dont even watch college ball, I just pay attention before the draft.
