First off, I didn't "call out" your post. You claimed that none of these player discussed have been worth their "re-draft" status.

I countered with information that maybe you weren't aware of to you help you understand why Gosselin chose the way he did.

Pouncey has the makings of Dermotti Dawson, a perennial Pro Bowler. He's been dominant in a defensive heavy division and has been the Steelers best lineman. They're currently 9-3, BTW. Earl Thomas has 64 tackles and 5 INT's for a 6-6 division leading team and has been doing everything asked of him for their scheme.

If those aren't reason enough for you to consider why they'd be highly touted, I don't know what to tell you.

The purpose of a "re-draft" is to asses the current level of play by rookies and based on their level of performance, re-slot them based on that value. If you disagree, please explain why you disagree. Don't just say "This is bullshit" or "This guy's an idiot" or any other predictable, non-informed remark.

And if you want to play "that game", I can tell you that while I wouldn't advocate taking a center at #3 overall, I'd certainly take Pouncey over Tyson Jackson.

At the end of the day, it's about the player's performance, not where he was drafted, as evidenced by this "re-draft".
