I don't get it.

And thats the problem you can't alway's draft for need, sometimes you have to draft the best available player if theres a big disparity between need and talent.
Rogers was a good pick, although I was starting to worry a bit about him a few games ago he seems to have really started to pick up his game and show more speed on the field, he was probably the victom of trying to understand the defense and the NFL and was a little slow in reacting because he was thinking to much hopefully he will just continue to progress.
Personally I wanted to trade down and bolster other areas of our team, but you can't cry about Rogers I think he will turn out to be a good one, the only alternative was to draft Merriman, reminds me a lot of John Abraham.
