It's like the Dontari Poe pick. The dude appears to be doing very well for himself, and *knock on wood* he'll turn into something REALLY special for us on the defensive line.

That doesn't justify the pick we made for him at the time, when we were getting a guy with no college production at freakin' Memphis, and who couldn't get upfield pressure one-on-one against a guard from Arkansas State all game.

Likewise, Tyson Jackson gets talked about as, "At least we didn't pick Aaron Curry or one of those other epic busts in the top 10." No, hindsight can't polish a turd, and it DEFINITELY can't justify spending the 3rd overall on a 5-tech when we had so many other needs.

Eric Fisher... yeah, not even gonna go there.

Exactly.

Is going from Cassel, Winston and Albert to Smith and Fisher worth the first overall pick and 2 second round pislcks (one being the second pick in the second round?)

I don't think so and would love to be wrong.
