Wait for it.....

''THERE WASN'T ANYBODY ELSE THERE FOR US!"

"IT'S TOO EARLY TO TELL!"

''THIS DRAFT SUXED!"

Okay, I have not been 'enamored' with the Jackson pick.

The difference is that I at least try to understand where the team is going, and why they do what they do.

Is he who I would have chosen? No. But, do I understand why they did it? Do I think they had better options? Yes. Do I think he is a huge mistake? No. A huge bust? No.

The thing about Herm and Pioli... they would rather draft guys that like football over a guy that has more talent who isn't as motivated.

A guy like DJ or Ryan Sims will never be drafted by Pioli. Now, Jackson may never be a superstar... but he is a high effort player.

You have to draft guys that love the game, and it is even better if you can draft guys that love to work at the game. There is a difference.

And, there are many guys who only play for the money and fame. And, IF those guys don't have success, they are more likely to put less into it rather than more.

The other kind of kid is determined. If they don't have success they work harder.
