Before we went on that magical week 16 - playoff run, Ted and Mike were on a warm seat for sure. Thompson ignored the pass rush needs in 2010 (when I wanted Jerry Hughes), when everyone mocked us taking an OLB high, and then he did it even bigger last year. He often times likes to find diamonds in the rough instead of go after the obvious studs. Nobody in the world had James Jones or Mike Neal rated within 50 picks of when he took them. Justin Harrell too. But also Greg Jennings and Nick Collins. So sometimes he's hit it big.I'm just tired of the OLB spot being crappy opposite Clay. That can be fixed if he's smart about it.</blockquote>
