The Pioli draft record is still very much open.

That's always been my thing with Moeaki.

Nobody was pissed at that pick based on raw talent - everyone could easily look at the tapes and see that Moeaki was a hell of a player when he was on the field.

The concern was his ability to stay on the field.

Well low and behold, he's already suffered a major injury and missed a season.

If he drafts a 'healthy' player that gets hurt, he gets a pass on the pick. But Pioli drafted a guy we all knew was injury prone...and he got hurt. It's like drafting a guy with bad hands who proceeds to drop a bunch of passes. He is what he is.

Moeaki could prove us wrong and stay healthy for the next 3-4 years and justify the pick; but I wouldn't count on it.

I just don't see how the 2010 draft can be held out as a sterling example of Pioli's draft record. It was by no means a great draft.
