You completely lost me after Spears.

Clarrett would be around long after that pick so why on Earth would we waste it on him?
Furthermore, I wouldn't give up an old pair of socks for that clown.
Thats your opinion. I don't think Clarett at the 42nd is a wasted pick. I think he has more upside than every RB in this draft IMHO.

What makes you think any other player is a lock. Gurode was a lock, Julius Jones looked like a bust in the making early in 2004 season. SO called "experts" and fans thought passing on Steven Jackson was bad move.

Quite frankly you are about a clueless as everyone else. I just have the balls to lay my opinion on line . Either way nobody really knows.

-you said, "feel free to ridicule and criticise."
The Eagles also had 3 Pro Bowl caliber players in the secondary in,2000 2001 and 2002 but it didn't stop the Eagles from drafting 3 DBs.

It goes both ways bro. I could find just as many teams that draft the best player available regardless of who is on the roster. I bet you most of those teams are the cream of the crop. Yes they don't have as many holes to fill but why should we settle for a lesser player to fill a hole. I'd rather have a secondary or unit full of Pro Bowl caliber players than have a selected player for need who turns out to be average see tghe Cowboys 1995-2002 draft philosophy.
