That's a historical draft. We do not have any probowlers from the 2009 nfl draft, which is disappointing considering we had 4 second round picks and two 3rds.

Looks to me like 2011 and especially 2012 are shaping up to be strong draft classes.

Does anyone miss Scott Pioli?

Vollmer may not be a pro bowler from the '09 class, but was All-Pro Second Team in 2010, which is a higher honor. Edelman and Chung also came from that class, and it looks like Brace is not a total bust either. Pretty darn good considering we traded out of the first round.

Gronk and Hernandez in one draft....amazing

It's about time to recognize some things about him. He probably did more things right than wrong, but ..... I just don't see him competing favorably with Caserio.

My mind isn't working; has Caserio interviewed for any GM jobs around the league or been asked to do so? I seem to recall him turning down a job interview somewhere but could be mistaken.

Sarcasm? If not, you set the bar a little high, there

In general, I don't think it's fair to praise the team for drafting Gronk (who fell due to questionable back health) while not praising them for drafting Vollmeer (who fell due to questionable back health). The same calculated risk was taken both times, and both players have shown themselves to be top-tier when healthy. To evaluate the picks differently is basically just pure hindsight in action.

Deus Irae

Pioli has done quite well drafting in K.C., so I don't see any reason to be calling him out, if that's what you mean.

Belichick needed to execute a slam dunk of a draft that year... and that's exactly what he did.

Pretty sure Caserio interviewed with, and turned down, Chicago this past off-season.
