Bob, there’s no defending this pick. Absolutely none. If you liked the kid so much, trade down. The kid didn’t have a first round grade. If we didn’t take him at 6, he’d still be on the board this morning like Drew Lock is and we’d be able to take him tonight.

And please don’t get me started on using the 17th pick on a two-down NT.

First of all…. my comment didn’t relate to the actual value of the picks which none of us have much idea. It was about your “he ‘s obviously too soft” inane commentary. If you have ever played football imagine playing that sport 20 days after breaking your collar bone and I don’t give a crap how good the surgeons are. He can’t possibly be “obviously soft”.

Your silly biases spew forward when you also said “he looks like the Covington Kid” (like that kid did anything wrong). I guess that is proof positive he is a pussy no matter what the facts are. Just for the record Eli Manning is the spitting image of Opie Taylor and he hasn’t missed a down in a million NFL seasons so judging a book by its cover generally isn’t a good idea while ignoring the facts.

This is why uninformed fans are morons. This guy is such a pussy he played 20 DAYS AFTER HAVING A PLATE INSERTED TO A BROKEN CLAVICLE!!! It is really hard to play football with a broken clavicle that needed surgery. Gutless bastard……

WTF man…. do a little research before spouting opinions like the 9 yr old who cried when the Knick drafted KP

I do appreciate the brilliant analogy to the crying Knicks fan, and the kid may be tougher than he looks. But you seem to ascribing to toughness credit that belongs to a medical staff. He didn’t play through pain, they figured a way to protect him from pain and further injury:

supposedly the senior bowl is where gettleman fell in love with jones…

I’ve never seen someone who is so obviously too soft for the NFL.

he’s a lot like our president…. and he’ll be hopefully out of a job by next year also….

Yeah, its pretty bad. If Gettleman wasn’t enamored with Haskins I don’t see why he wouldn’t just pick DE from a deep draft in the position at #6 and roll the dice with whoever’s left at QB there at #17. They went through all of that trouble to trade OBJ for that 17th pick and ended up with a NT in his stead.
