Yes he did. I find it funny people are all over his jock over this but simply over look Cerrato's failures at picking people. You do realize that we are below 50% on who we keep from our draft picks. All by Cerrato.

Plus maybe he saw something in Gardner that would have worked in his system. If I'm not mistaken Rod was a bit taller also which I think is why he was picked over S.Moss.

I remember that draft pick like it was yesterday - the Skins really needed a guard and the best one available kept falling. As the draft kept going I couldn't believe that Steve Hutchinson (who everyone thought was a top 10 draft pick) kept falling and not getting selected. Than it came to the Redskins - Steve hutchinson was right there for them - all the announcers were saying the Redskins lucked out and the annoucner came up and said the Washigton Redskins select Rod Gardner, wide reciever, Clemson. I throw my drink down in disgust saying how could the Redskins pass on the best guard available when they needed one so bad. We all know that Steve Hutchinson is an all pro guard who would have been a perfect new hog - but no the Skins had to go wide receiver and get one from my Gamecocks arch rival of all places - double whammy. I remember watching Gardner in a lot of games and he was infamous for pushing off on defenders to get open so I was so unimpressed with this pick - especially when Steve Hutchinson feel into our laps if our FO had only had a brain back than.

I'm not defending it. I didn't like 50/50. But Marty's one year could not be half as bad as Cerrato's decade or more.

Totally agree - if Vinny is not gone after this year we are stuck with him forever unfortunately.
