he makes a good point that every draft is different and the optimal choice isn't always(usually) available. sure jackson would've been better at 10, butthat wasn't an option. as for Raji, beside the fact he's not the solid high-floor pick Jackson is, i think Tank may have kept them from selecting a NT. I think they want to see what they've got in him first. I really hope he steps up, think he can if he is truly 340 as some have claimed.
i know you wanted gilbert in the third. i sympathize with not understanding a pick, but how many of gilbert's game have you seen? sure he sounds good on paper, but i think it's a little silly to think we know something about these guys that they don't when they've seen every snap he(+Magee)'s ever taken. im gonna assume they had something they didn't like about him we couldn't see.
