Cooks would have fell to us, Ingram would have dropped to the second round and Ellis may have fallen to us as well. I don't mind that they trade up for players, but they have done a piss poor job at scouting players which has forced them to make piss poor picks overall including the trades. Ingram and Cooks could still pan out to be great, but the point is we could have had them without moving up. |

Cooks the jury is out on, and how many spots did we move for that? Couple??? Ellis, ub yeah, dude was terrible. MI would feel better had we got him in second, unless this season matches last season So really ellis is the comparable to this year. Cause that is what we'd be doing, moving to like 6 or 7. I guess I am thinking Scherrf won't be there when we select and i'd like to get that dude |

Stupidest thing we ever did at the guard position back then was letting him walk in 2002. LeCharles Bentley was drafted in round 2 to fill his spot. so we spent a 1st and a second by 2002 to fill one spot an in the end Bentley was at center. So we had to go find yet another player to fill the guard position. Montrae Holland in 2003 in the 4th. next up Jahri Evans in 2004. and so on Bentley and Naeole would have solved so many issues for years on the OL. typical Jim Haslett move. I still like the pick today. some times longevity and solid play on the interior lines out weigh pro bowls |
