So our defense went against three first round QBs last season?
Yeah, we're going to destroy some people this year.

Two of which also had one of their WRs go in the first round too. Talk about trial by fire....sheesh.

Cannot imagine Dallas is at all interested in trading for a QB.
The market price for veteran players is very low (Asante Samuel for a 7th round pick). Dallas would be better off keeping Jenkins.

A lot of those moves are cap moves because of the relative diminished value of the player.

Wright wasn't recruited because he was a lightly recruited short athlete out of a small school. Bobby rated him as a 3* coming out of high school. Tannehill was also rated as a 3* QB coming out of high school. Tech, which was his first choice, didn't bother to recruit him. He was moved to receiver for his first two years at A&M. Its easy to pretend to be smart in retrospect.

Here are my 10 thoughts -
1. The Brown's front office is comprised of morons
2. Repeat thought #1
3. Repeat thought #1
4. Repeat thought #1
5. Repeat thought #1
6. Seattle's front office has learned to channel the now deceased Al Davis
7. Claiborne was drafted to make Dez feel smart
8. It's been too long since we have seen a Longhorn in the 1st round
9. Kiper uses more hairspray than Jimmie Johnson
10. Todd McShay is still trying to get Sneed into the top ten picks of the draft

Listening to Mike Mayock is about 1,000x more informative than listening to Todd McShay.

McShay is proof that ESPN is a generous organization that will even employ the village idiot to keep him from begging for spare change on the street.

Is it player development or player evaluation? Probably a good bit of the latter in there also.

Morris Claiborne isn't "honey badger." He was actually a good DB.

Oops.
My bad.
