But nothing else.<BR/><BR/>Ok, maybe a C+ if you count St. Pierre's clipboard holding abilities, and ability to stay on our sidelines every year for 5 years, EXCEPT for the year when we won the Super Bowl incidentally.

They traded two picks to do it.<BR/><BR/>Alonzo was an absolute bust. <BR/><BR/>Ike didn't so much fall behind Deshea as much as he fell into Cowher's doghouse. He started his entire first year under Tomlin and covered the other team's best receive. <BR/><BR/>The bottomline is if you come up with the best player in the draft, with your first pick coming into the draft as a late first rounder, I think you had an above average draft.LeeTunnelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16809553323893435128noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29893900.post-22073896164285309952008-04-26T13:24:00.000-04:002008-04-26T13:24:00.000-04:00Are you kidding me??

Ike Taylor had one really good year and then fell behind Deshea on the depth chart. Tunnel Vision is an understatement.Peteyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14739937061862981248noreply@blogger.com
