NFL Draft Scott Pioli would draft Tyson Jackson all over again

WTF is Scott gonna say? Dude sucks and was a wasted pick. That'll do wonders for the kids confidence.

Pretty much. We're $60 million into that kid. Let's just write it off and blow him up now. He said what he needs to say to the media. I have no doubt he's kicked himself in the ass over that one a few times. Hell, Todd's probably busted his balls on it by now.

Trade his ass to Al Davis

And it also might motivate him to get off his ass and prove something.

I'm sure he knows he's a wasted pick.

In all honesty, we don't know that. As fans we like to bitch, but some players really disappoint in their first couple of years before they break out and justify their draft. I'm still hoping we are looking at a case like that. After 2011 I'll be sure one way or another.

Even if he "breaks out" he still wont be worthy of that pick.

Depends on if he breaks out to be elite or not.

I know, I know,... I'm hoping 4 2much.

Glen Dorsey made huge strides this last year, so I'm hoping for the same from T Jackson. He has much to prove and so does many on this team have much to prove so we can build success around.

I think Glen Dorsey can lead by example for T Jackson to work hard and improve his game considerably. I'm not saying the job will get done but not wanting to give up on him to waist a pick that high in the draft.

TJ may end up as a bust, but am wanting him to prove himself otherwise.

Dorsey was considered the #1 player on many draft sites regardless of position. IMO, he has not lived up to that hype and I wonder if he has not reached his ceiling.

To be really honest, if Denver offered us their first rounder for him I might be real tempted for a chance to choose between Vonn Miller and Marcel Dareaus.

!@#$ the kid's confidence.

Maybe his bosses telling him he's been a massive disappointment and that there are literally dozens of players they regret not taking instead of him will actually get him to play with some fire.

If the result of coddling the boy is his last two seasons of 'production', I think it's probably time to kick him in the teeth.

I think benching him for a journeyman is the equivalent of kicking him in the teeth.

I don't see any coddling with Tyson Jackson going on to be honest.

No GM does that. Not publically, anyway.
