Are you related to BB? Long lost Uncle maybe?
"if Belichick had been PERFECT on his personnel decision as opposed to just ABOVE AVERAGE"
WHAT! I love the wording, PERFECT, no one is perfect with personnel decisions, all we're asking for from BB is to be NEAR AVERAGE if that's possible. Where in the world do you get ABOVE AVERAGE? Yikes man.
The general measure of good drafting is for teams to hit on their first rounders, and to do well enough on their second pick. The Patriots have been elite in this regard over the past decade.
2001: Richard Seymour- Hall of Famer, Matt Light-10 year high level starter
2002: Daniel Graham- Very solid player, Deion Branch- Hit
2003: Ty Warren- Pro-Bowler, consistent top-5 34 end, Bethel Johnson- Elite return man, receiver bust.
2004: Vince Wilfork- top 5 defensive tackle, Ben Watson- not a bust
2005: Logan Mankins- top three guard, Ellis Hobbs- not bad for a 3rd rounder
2006: Laurence Maroney- not as bad a tenure many think, but not good. Chad Jackson- bust.
2007: Brandon Meriweather- not a total flop, arguably their worst 1st rounder
2008: Jerod Mayo- top-5 inside linebacker, Terrence Wheatley- Bust
2009: Patrick Chung- hit, Darius Butler- bust
2010: Devin McCourty- 1st year probowler, Rob Gronkowski- best TE in NFL, having the best season for a TE in NFL history, potential to be the GOAT.
2011: Nate Solder- hit, Ras-I Dowling- jury's out, looked excellent in limited reps.
I can think of a lot of fan bases that would kill for a decade of drafting this poorly.
