[QUOTE="Carl, post: 542697, member: 9497"] Drafting late doesn't make it more difficult to select better players? Here's the percents of bust by pick.[ATTACH=full]2730[/ATTACH] All you're doing is using hindsight to say who they should have picked instead. I could say that about all other 31 teams that didn't take Sherman before the 5th round or didn't take Brady before the 6th. With comparing Daniels and Jones, Jones was 1st round and Daniels was a 4th and right now Daniel is better. I don't see how it matters that Daniels was picked later. If you look at such a small sample size of two picks and 50% work out, that's actually well above the draft pick success rate and not an argument in your favor. Raji and Hawk have been solid contributors, not great, but solid and certainly not busts. Plus, the were picked right where they were rated to go. It's not like the Packers ignored their board and reached on guys. They could have also picked much worse players like Ernie Sims in 2006 and Aaron Maybin in 2009. The expectation you have that most first round picks have to be very good players is extremely unrealistic. That's not the norm by any means. [/QUOTE]
