I think his quote was in response to your post regarding the comparison between McIntosh and the oakland lb. They're both solid players, just because one has slightly out performed the other to this point doesn't mean that their careers will end up that way. I think we've seen alot out of Rocky to be excited about in the future regardless of what the oak rb does.
If you use the justification that if player A was picked in round 5 and player B was picked in round 7, and player B turns out to be an equal or better pro, that therefore player A was a bad pick regardless of his overall quality, I think it's a flawed arguement.
Whew that sentence is confusing but I think you get my point. Using the same logic a qb who is equal or less than Tom Brady that was picked in the 5th round or earlier is a bad pick because another team got more value in a later round. I don't think that judging it like that is representative of the true value of a player/pick.
