I'm sorry but I don't like the 3rd round picks. We should have shored up our OL not gotten back ups.

DaJuan Morgan is already our best safety. The guy may be the most talented safety in the draft. He's a special player.

Jamaal Charles is exactly what our team needs.

Sometimes I think that people just assume that a football team is 22 players plus a kicker, punter, return man, and a long snapper. It's not. You need guys like Charles, and he fills a vital role that is far more important than just a backup.

He's going to be our third down back, and he can gash defenses with his speed. I guarantee you that he's got more breakaway speed than maybe any back but Chris Johnson (even if McFadden's 40 was faster).

'course, that said, LJ doesn't exactly stand people up, either...

So, when was the moment where you flip-flopped from HERM WARFARE president... to Secret Herm Edwards Fan club?

Was it the playoff loss to the Colts that won you over? Or was it the 4-12 season?

Can you pinpoint the precise moment that made you swoon from left to right?

Valid points. Not disputing tthe picks on the basis that they suck. I'm saying that OL was a greater need and we could have used the last 3 rounder and the 5th rounder to pick one of the guys that I listed.

Hey man, I wasn't a big fan of the Cottam pick, but I understand why you'd be enticed by him. Were I the Chiefs, I would have probably gone Reggie Smith, Zuttah, and then Morgan just based upon drafting BPA.

The only thing that sucked about that round is that Ellis went before our first pick, Smith right before our second, and Doucet right before our third. But we didn't panic.

With that being said, Morgan is still a great player, Charles fills a definitive need and was good value there (Detroit should have taken him @ the top of the round if they wanted a RB), and Cottam has great potential.

The reason why I think they passed on Zuttah is that they like what they have with Niswanger and Taylor, and given that we also picked up Albert and Richardson, you can't say that the cupboard is bare. We aren't going to trot out asshats like Svitek, Welbourne, Terry, and Turley this year. The o-line is already immensely more talented, healthier, and younger.
