Message: <blockquote data-quote="net" data-source="post: 146270" data-attributes="member: 200">This draft is shaping up a bit like 2005...where Ted tried to prove to the rest of the league that he could find chicken salad in chicken poo.I don't disagree with the 'best athlete available' thinking, but Herrell was injured last year with what appears to be the same injury that finished Gilbert Brown. Considering Brady Quinn was still around, if you're going to take the best pick, regardless of position, wouldn't you take Quinn over Herrill? How about the tight end? If Olsen was a reach at 16,  how could you say Herrell isn't? Olson would have filled a need.Round one is very confusing. Round two is equally confusing. This guy appears to be another reach. He was passed over by virtually every analyst I read.  Has some positives, but hardly dominated at his position.Round three. We have a receiver, who was ok, but hardly dominated at his position.The first three picks have "reach" all over them.Michael Turner could have been signed. Just remember that on opening day.ROTTT(Reign of Ted Thompson Terror) now is ROSTTT(Reign of Sleeper Ted Thompson Terror).Ted's 2005 draft was called the "most arrogant" draft one analyst had seen because Ted was trying to prove everyone else in the league wrong.I guess old dogs can't learn new tricks.</blockquote>
