Hali was a stud. Plain and simple.
Pollard was a special teams stud. 3 blocked kicks, a TD and numerous big hits/tackles on ST. He'll be a starter in this 2nd year.
Croyle: We all knew he wouldn't be a factor until this year at the earliest, possibly 08. He was a steal in R3.
No R4 pick.
Maxey appears to be the lone bust of the group. We'll know more after camp.
Stallings: Where exactly was he gonna play? Ahead of a pair of Pro Bowlers?
Webb: Herm has already said he'll likely start in 07
Page: A R7 pick who most thought wouldn't even make the team. How many rookies can say they baited the great Peyton Manning into throwing a pick in a playoff game? Another starter in 07.
Go back at DV's drafts and show me a year where more than 2 solid picks were made, much less 3-5.
