I doubt he'll be a bust, but 4th rounders bust more often than they are successful. I know you are extremely enamored with the draft, but personally, as soon as a player hits the roster I really don't care in what round they were drafted or how many picks were used as it is in the past ... water under the bridge.

Just saying, JP. As Doris Day so aptly put it, "Que sera, sera ...".

On a side note, Doris Day was hot.

Saints Fan first, so I want to be wrong about the pick and I hope the support system there with Roushar, Strief, Ramczyk can help develop him into a Right Tackle...

...especially because I'd love to have the option of moving Ramczyk to left tackle and move on from Mr. Glass...

Get the idea that you can be un-drafted and still become a great player, John Randle comes to mind, but this is the age of salary cap, a shortened draft...

You gotta get it right through the first four rounds to be competitive, evidenced by last season's success with improved coaching, but last year's draft as well...

But, you can be right and wrong within just a few picks so I included this as a playful jab at ourselves and for perspective...

Who the Hell is Mel Kiper?
