We are not taking a QB in the first round

I don't blame Jackson for that, and I don't really blame the front office (I know some will have a shit fit about that but I don't). We tried to trade down and couldn't find any takers. The only guy that in hindsight would have been worth it was Orakpo. And I think what hurt him was ****ing Vernon Gholston because everyone kept comparing the two and Gholston is on his way to being a colossol bust. So I think the thinking was to put another big body to build around up front, which is what they did in New England (look I'm not chanting the Patriots way either, so spare me the sarcasm).

Good post. I would add Crabtree to that short list of guys that would have been worth the pick.
