That complaint seems pretty legit now, because we can look at Aaron Hernandez who was taken in the 4th round by the Pats.

You're absolutely correct.
I don't recall anyone disputing his talent.
I do, however, recall people not being thrilled that we traded up, when we could have had him, or someone as talented with our original pick. And people were concerned that he missed something like 26 of Iowa's 52 games while he was there.
And there were people that weren't thrilled with the fact that the regime had traded up to take a TE two years running.
