I like the players, I hate the picks.
1. Berry -- zero complaints.
2a. McCluster -- reach. This is virtually the equivalent of taking McCluster with a first round pick. This is an embarrassment. Instead, I would have taken Clausen to provide us with some eventual hope at the most important position.
2b. Arenas -- reach. We drafted an iffy corner and a great returner
with a second rounder. I mean, holy shit, the value's just not there. We could have picked up any number of nose tackles (Cody), passrushers (Worilds), wide receivers (Williams)...
3a. Asamoah -- decent value, but at a position we don't need. Who drafts a guard in the third round and
doesn't start them? Are we reeruned? Why wouldn't we draft a great receiver from USC (Williams)?
3b. Moeaki -- two more picks for a tight end? Ugh. Mardy Gilyard was still available. Daryl Sharpton was available. Bruce Campbell was available. I mean, Christ.
5a. Lewis -- reach. Ed Wang was still around. Cam Thomas was still around.
5b. Sheffield -- no major complaints here.
What we basically did was reach all over the place for team captains. That's what we did. Which is no better than reaching all over the place for linebackers, or offensive linemen, or wide receivers.
This is my draft, if I knew how things would play out (I know):
1. SS Eric Berry, Tennessee
2. QB Jimmy Clausen, Notre Dame
2. NT Terrance Cody, Alabama
3. WR Damian Williams, USC
3. WR Mardy Gilyard, Cincinnati
5. OT Ed Wang, Virginia Tech
5. OLB Cam Sheffield, Troy
