Who should we have picked?

(Late Night reply) Good question! Let's say everything we did up until the SuperBowl, was perfect. Since then, we've messed it up pretty darn bad. Let's play a favorite game... REDRAFT! CSP has said several times he wanted Jimmy Garoppolo in 2014. Imagine if we had spent that pick on him instead of SJB. Then not taken Peat in 2015 because we told La'El we'd take him in the 3rd! BOLD where the pick was good enough to make again. (Side Note, Antonio Brown would not have been the same WR here, and pre-crazy Greg Hardy would have probably been a better pick for 2010-158, but not adding him, cause F HIM). Eifert in 2013, with Gronk and JimmyG, because F YOU!

Obviously it's too early to call him a busy without him seeing an NFL regular season snap yet, but I still am highly optimistic about the pick and I like the plan with him if it is to let him sit for a while and develop him. One of the biggest problems you see in the NFL these days is teams rushing picks onto the field because they were drafted in certain rounds. You see it more with quarterbacks because that's the one position that is talked about the most, but that doesn't mean all of the other positions don't need time to develop. Like someone noted, look at how it benefited Armstead. With all of the potential Peat has, you can compare him in some ways to Eric Fisher in Kansas City or Luke Joeckel in Jacksonville. Both of those top first round picks have not completely lived up to the expectations of their teams and probably could have benefit from some development on the sidelines.

No, but dumbass LSU fans believe this to be so.
