[QUOTE="GleefulGary, post: 875548, member: 12583"] Several things. No, I wasn't, and really I'm still not a huge fan of taking a RB as early as we did. There's a few factors here though. RB's went off the board earlier than expected. There really weren't any YAC WR's available at the selection that wouldn't have been a huge reach. I'd rather have Dillon in the 2nd than Duvernay in the 2nd. Antonio Gibson was available, and I'd probably prefer him, but again, I'm just a random guy. I don't know what the Packers know. I'm not defending the pick as much as I am defending the player. I didn't love the pick, but Dillon is a good player. Anybody not recognizing that is just being blind. Sorry, but it's true. He's a unique talent. As far as media rankings, I legitimately could not give a crap. I have seen so many teams "win" and "lose" the draft, and having the opposite happen. The draft is really freaking hard. NFL teams miss. The media misses much, much, more. So forgive me for not caring what the media thinks about the draft. If they knew ****, they'd be employed by the NFL. The only one who really has any validation is Jeremiah. Lance Z is better than most, and Duke Manyweather is the only person to listen to as far as OL. And that's it. Why wouldn't Dillon help in regards to play action and offensive versatility? Some details, please. [/QUOTE]
