No, he wasn't.
Medlock led the entire NCAA in kicking accuracy, especially from long range.
Crosby had alot of long ATTEMPTS, but he was horribly streaky and scouts were concerned that the ball came out too low, which would lead to blocks in the NFL.
Hindsight is 20/20 and obviously Crosby worked out better. But leading into that draft, Medlock was the better prospect to pretty much every team in the league - it's a documented fact.
