#4: Leonard Davis turned into a Pro Bowl guard. If you're going to put him into a negative/bust category, you're clearly not going to be objective about this and I'm not going to waste my time breaking down other positions.
#5 This doesn't even warrant an answer.

So, the entire success rate of every other round in the draft equating to the same chance of a Super Bowl win as a 1st rounder, somehow means that you are just as probable with a QB not in the first round?
Yeah, you might have a point if a team spent picks on rounds 2-7 on QB.
Show me where guards are worth the #2 overall pick in the draft and that contract. Please.
