NEGATIVE... I said it! I shouted it then... Mangold/Fergeson. Yeah there was some, not many but some. I think its funny everyone/majority of people were all excited and got there panties wet about Reggie not going one. But I was still eyeing trading down or taking a TOP lineman.

Reggie was the right pick unless you want to be a San Antonio or LA Saints fan. He's probably the sole reason NO was able to renew the contract with Benson. Do you think D'Brick would have essentially sold the Dome out by himself? The team is freakin' 3-0 and they are still running all of those reggie/saints commercials in the national games.

Sure... quick fix. No problem. 0-3 and its not looking any brighter. I can't argue that point. So now do we build a football team finally.

Not "everyone" is against this pick. Many of us (perhaps even MOST) feel that Reggie is a rare talent that absolutely could not be passed up at the second pick. The number that think picking Reggie was a mistake is very small. And so that I'm not putting words in anyone's mouth, it is my interpretation (from the dictionary):

Mistake:
noun
1. an error in action, calculation, opinion, or judgment caused by poor reasoning, carelessness, insufficient knowledge, etc.
2. a misunderstanding or misconception.
–verb (used with object)
3. to regard or identify wrongly as something or someone else: I mistook him for the mayor.
4. to understand, interpret, or evaluate wrongly; misunderstand; misinterpret.
–verb (used without object)
5. to be in error.

therefore, if someone says that we selected the "wrong" guy for our team, I would opine that they are saying we were "in error", or have committed "an error in action, calculation, opinion, judgement...et al." - i.e. they think it was a mistake to draft Reggie.
