And we could've drafted Jerious Norwood with our 3rd that we gave up. Ohh well sometimes you lose a gamble, but there's still time to turn things around.

Face it the Patriots whiffed big time picking Jackson instead of McNeil.
He could have been our stud LT for the next 10 years.
Maybe BB and Pioli listened to much to the Urban Meyer hype

Marcus, I apologize in advance for what I'm about to do - take out ON YOU all of my frustration with posts like this one. You are being a child. Impatient. Short-sighted. Might I say...stupid. Ignorant. Embarrassing. Silly. Troll-like. A loser.

This goes for all of you with this junk. Find a new site. A common one. This place is meant for better minds than yours. Again, I apologize - but not really.

Have a nice day.

I remember how brilliant all those teams were who passed up Big Vince, who was a consensus top 10 rated palyer. He dropped to #21 and the patriots picked him then Ben Watson at #32.

For a team that doesn't know how to draft players, the Patriots got lucky on that one.

Check out what Reggie Wayne did his first year. As I recall, many thought that the Colts mad a mistake with him.

Yep, a mere 345 yards. And he was healthy.

You know what? The Colts could have had Marvin Minnis over Reggie Wayne. The Jets could have had Minnis over Santana Moss too. Sounds stupid doesn't it? Except in the 2001 season after they were all drafted, Minnis looked to be like the Superstar in the making and Wayne and Moss looked like draft busts.

Give it time. You can't judge a rookie WR after one year.

Chad Jackson has obviously been a disappointment this year but

before we jump off a bridge let's give him another year. We must remember

that for every wide receiver like Deon Branch who can play in the NFL

right away, there are numerous others like Chad Jackson.

McNeil? He'd be on the bench behind Light and Kaczur (assuming O'Callaghan wouldn't be drafted too)

Hester? Can he even play CB?

Jennings? With that nearly non-existent WR corps in Green Bay, any rookie WR would have a chance to shine. Except those that, you know, happened to have gotten INJURED and haven't had a fair shot to show their worth!

...

I'm excited with the base of the WR corps next year being built on Caldwell, Jackson, and possibly Brown. Add in whoever comes in through the draft, a trade, or free agency, and the obvious 3-4 options at TE, and Brady has a young and rebuilt receiving corps to work with.

I get the feeling you can add Gaffney (who's signed through next year) to that based on Belichick's comment today (from the Herald blog) :

"Jabar Gaffney drew high praise from Belichick. “That was a good addition for us,” the coach said. “Through his experience and understanding of the passing game and terminology background from Houston, he picked things up very quickly.”"
