Damn right it does, I think it was a great move as well. It seems the higher picked offensive players never do as well out of the gate as the defensive players anyway.

i dont think reggie bush quite fits in well with the argument of "other offensive players" this guy changes games in a more consistent manner then mario williams. an interesting stat on williams, 0 sacks in games against virginia tech, boston college and florida st. 10 sacks against wake forest, middle tennesee state and maryland.

pats take laurence maroney RB outta minnesota...with deangelo williams still on the board why not take him instead??

[CAL]

Is anyone else surprised the first three Pats picks were all on offense?

Thats great Dillion looked like he lost it, and they needed a game breaking receiver.

I was surprised also Cal, but they did get 3 defensive guys at the end.

I'll ask Bill why they didn't take Williams instead.

kinda forgot that I started this thread.
I was a bit shocked with the Davin Joseph pick but maybe Tampa will an O line finally.

Jeremy Trueblood

[Surfcastinglife]

weren't the "experts" going on and on about how much of a reach trueblood was where he went, that he was overrated as a 2nd round pick? i dont have espn insider but heres the little analysis they have on him........

2 27(59) Jeremy Trueblood OT BOSTON COLLEGE
Trueblood is the second offensive lineman the Bucs have chosen in as many picks thus far in the 2006 draft. While he certainly fits a position of need, we once again feel the Bucs reached for below-average talent with this selection.
Complete analysis

i'd think someone who's as hyped as mario williams should be able to beat anyone as overrated as trueblood?

i think im rambling, its late but what im trying to get at is mario williams may not be as good as advertised if he cant even get a sack while up against what the experts feel is an overrated lineman
