So what? That just makes him Flozel Adams younger brother...Adams has always had a motivational problem as well and has never reached his true potential, but he's still a good lineman and gets to the probowl as an alternate.
We just upgraded our OL, and people are complaining...
not necessarily you.
It's funny how selective the memories of some fans are. I remember when Parcells made re-siging Adams a priority and the message boards were smoking with hate. Lazy, fat, unmotivated? Remember. Well a few years and a couple of Pro-Bowls later no one's crying over that one. It's called coaching, kids. Find the right ones and a player is all of a sudden for real. Davis will never live up to his #2 overall status (Just as Ellis has never lived up to his #8 overall staus). I doesn't mean that he can't be serviceable and at the very least an upgrade at RG. I don't know about you, but if I have to choose between Dockeryand Davis at similar cash, it's no brainer. You take Davis.

No doubt. Jones still gets some grief for passing on Randy Moss.
But LaDainian Tomlinson?
Geeze. He'd get run out of town!
But seriously, being the guy who the Cardinals picked instead of LT can't be easy either .....
To be honest, if they had taken Tomlinson without fixing that O-line LT would be JAG right now. The Cardinals have a knack for ignoring the line and hiring/drafting superstar players only to make them pedestrian at best (especially RBs). Jones, Pittman, James, Shipp, Smith (though quickly declining) all backs that would be/have been very solid backs every where but Arizona. If they take LT instead he wouldn't be LT today he'd be that kid that flopped out in AZ.
