In response to Percy Snow, He was a stud coming out of Michigan State. I remember seeing some draft warroom show that year and Schottenheimer was going ballistic on getting the kid.
In response to Sims, everyone was stoked on Sims, As a matter of fact ESPN barely did any coverage on him, because he was regarded as the best DL in the draft. The big search was who was on the 2nd best DL in the draft.
So there you go Carl got 2 studs out of college that didn't work out. If he had the benefit of hindsight like you do I'm sure he wouldn't pick them.
The thing that pisses me off about Carl is not when he drafts a college stud early and they flop.
It is when he drafts projects way too freaking early. Alot of players, he just creams all over himself over and gets them regardless of positioning.
It's almost like every pick he's trying to prove someone wrong.
