I was 100% on the...

Well, I have no idea, these aren't exciting picks but Pioli is the executive of the decade fence...

and we still have no idea whether or not that draft class is a failure yet anyways...depends on Jackson and Cassel...so far, off to a bad start.

But at no point was I like "wow, this class is going to be great!" last year...at NO point.

This year...wow...I feel 100% confident we had a MONSTER draft...

Berry and Asomoah are locks...McCluster and Arenas have game changing ability and tremendous track records...and if their game transitions into the pro game...wow. Right there. We win...

Anything we get from Moeaki or our 5th round picks is just gravy.

Yes, you did.

You spent the entire ****ing draft weekend talking about how Pioli is a GM and we aren't etc etc, hey just like now.

but it's not like I was ever once excited about a pick...

shit...the only pick everyone seemed to like was Donald Washington and now everyone already hates the guy...

I wasn't excited about Tyson Jackson. Not one bit. Or Alex Magee...

But I didn't ****ing mope about it and ruin an entire draft weekend for everyone on this board...that's for sure.

But I challenge you to find a post ON DRAFT WEEKEND last year where I said I thought Tyson Jackson was a great pick!

I don't think you'll find one.

I do however, think Berry/McCluster/Arenas/Asomoah and Moeaki were total wins and that this will be a better draft class than the one we had in 2008.
