I guess maybe I have faith in a guy like Pioli...we ALL knew the Patriots draft the Patriots way...and we all knew the guys that go cuckoo over the draft on this board were going to hate Pioli...so what is the big surprise?

So far, watching preseason...I've really liked what I've seen from Jackson and Magee...suddenly we're a NT away from having a pretty damn good DL...one chalked full of potential if you think about it...

and in all honesty, when I was watching...it seemed as if Tamba Hali might actually be a damn good blitzing OLB...but that's just from what I watched and what do I know?

I think we have a chance to field a pretty respectable defense this season...

Now...offensively...different story. But expecting this entire team to be fixed over one season? If we can play a little defense and establish a running game this season...we could win some games.

I'm certain there are reasons that they took Washington and Brown, and Washington's potential is pretty obvious.

But I can't even begin to fathom the reasoning behind taking Brown over Meredith.
Certainly there's no guarantee that Meredith will ever amount to anything, but I was almost certain that Brown would never be a RT in the NFL.

The fact that they chose to move him to RG in the second week of training camp pretty much tells us that they realized that he can't play RT, and indicates that the selection was a bad one.

Now I'm simply left to wonder what the hell they were thinking?
