For them, for the fit, for projecting the roster this year and in the future, he was the better pick.

I just think it's funny with the instant grades, second guesses, and what-ifs every year. Suddenly now Mathis was a bad pick (too bad he got hurt)...oh yea, BRob was a reach too. Remember that?

Just like Ruh said - we picked up Wylie in the off-season. We also picked up Gates. There are still good players left to be drafted, and there are still good free agent offensive linemen available (right now), and more to be had when players start getting cut.

For me, this offseason is shaping up pretty good so far - in free agency, the draft, new coaches...the sale...all of it.

Whose future is that? Surely not Ron's. He isn't auditioning to be the GM for the new owner. He's not a GM. He needs to win this season to even have a chance of remaining as HC. This is Ron's fifth year and he hasn't had a winning year yet. New owner = lame duck.
