Above I posted a link to a thread about last year's draft. I tried to get one that had many different people offering their opinion.

The reason I do this is to ask if, even after one season, anybody's mind has been changed about how good or bad the 2004 draft class was. I keep reading where we need to fire Rick Meuller based on bad drafting and scouting, but I think we did really good last year so this statement confuses me.

We ended up getting:

Will Smith - played well last year. Possible 2005 starter.
Courtney Watson - played well also, started many games in '04.
Colby Buckwaldt - Started a few games - a big achievment for 7th rounder.
Mike Karney - Started in '04 and will just keep on starting. Probably better than T. Smith in '05.
Henderson - sat on the bench, but everyone is interested in seeing what he can do.

That's pretty good return for one draft, imho.
