However, I loathe the pick.

The guy didn't produce in college despite his prodigious athletic talents. He's a major work in progress that may or may not pan out. That's not the guy you take in the first round when you have numerous needs at other positions (WR/OL/DB/ILB/etc.) I know that they need depth at the OLB position, but Ford is a one trick pony that didn't really do that one trick very well.

What the **** are you talking about? Ford had the best production of any pass rusher last year.
He single handedly owned in big games last year. Look at the TAMU game. He killed it. The national championship game he killed it. He killed it at the senior bowl. He had double digit sacks last year.

There was no WR or DB with the pick at that point. Don't even bring up Dennard and his slow ass who can't turn his hips well.

Bottom line is you have your favorites. 2 coaches who are very highly regarded in the NFL today wanted him in the first rd and 1 coach got him.

I'm gonna trust they know what they are doing over you. They have he success to back it up.
