Re: Could you have drafted better than the Skins FO?

Trying to do this based on what I would have done that year. Keep in mind my beliefs as to how to actually build a football team have evolved over time so these picks are what I wanted during the actual draft day and do not necessarily represent what I would have done with my current mindset.

2004:
My Pick: Sean Taylor
Pick: Sean Taylor

2005:
My Pick: Mike Williams () Tossup between Merriman, Mike Williams, and Carlos Rogers (I had different priorities back then, plus with Williams production at USC I thought he was a lock to be a star. I loved Merriman's measureables though and the versatility was just icing on the cake. On the other hand I knew we needed a Corner so I was on board with the Rogers pick)
Pick: Carlos Rogers

2nd 1st Round Pick: Jason Campbell
My Pick: Stay pat and don't trade up. Ironically we would have been able to sign Drew Brees as a Free Agent with this plan.

2006:
My Pick: Mathias Kiwanuka or D'Qwell Jackson at 22nd overall
For the actual 2nd we got: Not to sure but I want to say Thomas Howard. I know I was really fond of Winston Justice on draft day.
Pick: Traded away 1st in real life. I personally wouldn't have traded the first but the first pick for the Skins was Rocky McIntosh.

2007:
My Pick: Laron Landry
Pick: Laron Landry

Also one that pissed me off was the 2007 selection of Jordan Palmer. If it was me we would have taken Ben Patrick in a heartbeat.

2008:
My Pick: Would have taken the Falcons up on their offer and came away with Devin Thomas, Calias Campbell, and Charles Godfrey
Pick: Devin Thomas, Fred Davis, and Malcom Kelly

3rd Comp
My Pick: Mike McGlynn G/T - Pitt
Pick: Chad Rhinehart G/T - Nothern Iowa

4th Round
My Pick: Owen Schmitt FB - West Virginia
Pick: Justin Tryon

6th Round
My Pick: Steve Justice (C, Wake Forest), Erin Henderson (LB, Maryland), Marcus Dixon (DT Hampton)
Pick: Durant Brooks, Kareem Moore, Colt Brennan

7th Round
My Pick: Kerry Brown (G, App State), Marcus Monk (WR, Arkansas)
Pick: Rob Jackson, Chris Horton

Undrafted Free Agents:
Would have signed Colt Brennan as I honestly believe he would have gone undrafted.
