Yeah, Vinny just bungled it royally either way. We could have had Royal and Jackson. We got Thomas and Kelly.
We could have had Chris Johnson, Sam Baker, or Rashard Mendenhall had we stayed in the first round. We just simply missed out on playmakers. Yeah, CP was here, but we would have had no need to commit more picks to RBs in the next 5 years at the very least.
