I strongly disagree.
Tyson Jackson was an awful pick for numerous reasons. Two down player, 5 tech, passing on Elite talent (Matthews, Harvin, etc.) and forcing an entire defensive shift. And ***** most certainly created that "hole" through personal amount of dipshittery.
Joeckel/Fisher would fill a need created by the trade of Albert. Let's face it: The promise of Albert's rookie season went unfulfilled his subsequent four seasons.
Haley made him lose weight, which caused him to lose confidence. His 2009 was shaky at best and while he played better in 2010, he wasn't a Pro Bowler, let alone All-Pro.
He's a guy that's slightly above average. He's probably closer to John Tait than John Alt and he's no where near "Elite". At nearly 29 years of age and a new regime, I'm fine with him moving on.
