I remember that many on this board debated over whom to take in the 2006 draft and there was a big divide on Carpenter vs Lawson....well 3 seasons later here are the results. Looks a lot closer than you'd think although Lawson looks like he still would've been a better pick judging purely from stats.
The real shame of it is that we could've taken Demeco Ryans, Greg Jennings, or Marcus McNeil with that pick. Dow!!!

Bobby Carpenter

Hes about the only 1st round pick we have whiffed on recently and the only reason we picked him was because he was a FOB.
