What's even MORE IMPRESSIVE is that they average a 5th overall pick! (Would be higher if Landry wasn't dragging down the average). It's not like we got a bunch of late first-rounders, but instead, guys that should be 5th overall, certifyable studs! We've got lots of other talent (draft-wise) on the team:

1st Rounders:

* Springs - 4th
* Taylor - 4th
* Rogers - 5th
* Landry - 7th
* Carter - 7th
* Wynn - 21st

2nd Rounders:

* Smoot
* Griffin
* Washington
* McIntosh (well, technically 2 x 2nd round picks)

Others:

* Daniels - 4th round
* Sa'laveia - 4th round
* Fletcher - UNDRAFTED

I know that draft potential doesn't meat shit - but you would think we'd have a top 5 defense just looking at that squad. Wouldn't it be sad if our best player this year was Fletcher - the only undrafted player!
