Worse draft in the Burrow Era

[Joelist]

Look I think Stewart was a terrible pick; project players of this type can be had on Day 3 usually. you could see what happened (as usual) - we wanted Nolen and it was too obvious. He got taken right before us. We panicked and instead of doing the smart thing (grabbing a G/T right then while several good ones were there) reached on a project pick.

Now we're locked into G/T in Round 2 and because we need an immediate starter our choice is again obvious and again we're reduced to hoping they aren't taken before we pick. For a team that relies on the draft our war room seems poorly prepared and unable to react quickly to circumstances.

It isn't the end of the world but it is galling. All they had to do was go up there with Zabel's name on the card and they would be in a good position today.
