You're biased towards him but you're questioning if he's worth a first round pick?

yeah, looking at the picks after him.. it seems like the best choice...

Paul Poslusney? Eric Weddle? maybe...

But I like Meachem. I think as far as 1st round money.. no.. but as a serviceable WR.. . yeah, he is money.

Here is the WR's that went after Meachem up to our next pick in 2007:

1st Round
#30 - Craig Davis - Chargers
#32 - Anthony Gonzales - Colts
2nd Round
#44 Sidney Rice - Vikings
#45 Dwyane Jarrett - Panthers
#51 Steve Smith - Giants

Would we have reached on Rice or Smith, not sure. Maybe?

Some notables that went between the Meachem pick and our 3rd round pick:

#36 Kevin Kolb - Eagles
#38 Zac Miller - Raiders
#46 LaMarr Woodley - Steelers
#63 Brandon Jackson - Packers

I bet the FO would have rather had a LB like Woodley instead of Meachem but hindsight is 20/20
