I was pilloried for it.

I also thought that taking Raji (given the fact that he can play NT) or a guy like Maclin would be far better than Jackson, and I said such. I thought Malcolm Jenkins was an option until his awful 40 time.

you also took Vernon Gholston over Matt Ryan on a team that is an elite QB away from being Super Bowl contenders...
