Last year I wanted OLB Hassan Reddick but I didn't think there was a chance lattimore would be there

I really wanted Eddie George. We took a garbage CB that year. His name escapes me.
Also wanted AJ Hawk over Reggie
Wanted Ruben foster
Really wanted glen Dorsey the year we took Ellis
I hated the meachem pick I wanted defense there
I wanted the linebacker the Steelers picked a few years ago. Most of us did can’t remember his name. Not that great these days
I was like WTF when we traded up for Kamara. That worked out perfectly.

Treadle needs Brees throwing to him. Treadwell would look like a 1st round pick.

Eddie George had a career 3.6 YPC. He was so damn overrated

My biggest that we had plenty of chances to take was D. Hunter, I was so mad that they used neither of their 3rds that year on him. With him our D line is definitely top 10, maybe top 5

I'm still mad we took Johnathan Sullivan over Terrell Suggs. Thought for sure we were trading up for him

Never realized he was there when we took Sullivan, the guy I had always thought of was Kevin Williams I think, drafted by Minny a couple picks later, that pick alone, trading two firsts for Sullivan was a big reason Peyton is here now

I don't get caught up on the hype of a certain player because we don't know what's really happening and half our legends are guys nobody heard of. And God knows, get sick of the "we should draft (insert LSU player here)" threads.

All that being said, I really really really was bummed when the Chiefs pulled the trigger on Glenn Dorsey before we did. Looks like we dodged a bullet there. Oh, wait. Sedrick Ellis.

I was also disappointed when the Saints passed on Mark Ingram and picked Cam Jordan instead.

Isn't his problem that he can't run routes? If so, he's the last thing Brees would tolerate. He's the anti-Thomas.

Jarvis Landry, just imagine how many catches he would have playing the slot in the Saints offense with Drew Brees.

Not afraid to say it, I wanted the Saints to draft Matt Leinart. I thought for sure the Texans would take Bush #1 overall and then Leinart - the sure-fire NFL franchise QB - would fall right into our lap! Then we signed Brees' broken arse, and I wasn't happy at all. I figured we were going to miss out on both Leinart & Bush at that point.

Needless to say, I had no fricking clue what I was walking about.
