If you want to feel really bad, that 2010 draft where we selected 3 WRs was when we blew the first rounder for Everette Brown in 2009. The two WRs drafted right after (within 2-3 picks) what would have been our first round pick were Demaryius Thomas and Dez Bryant. Think they would have helped in our playoff appearances?

What would have been. I also don’t want to dredge up that we wouldn’t have needed Armanti and/or LaFell and would have needed a DE still. Guess who the next DE picked after Armanti was? Everson Griffen.

  And don’t forget he traded a 2013 3rd rounder for Joe Adams. Player taken the pick after that one in 2013, Terron Armstead. 

Again That's kind of hindsight.. A lot of us loved the Joe Adams pick.

Heah...heah, heaaaah.....

[WOW!!]

How about this..

Our best WR's in history was picked by our worst GM's..

Seifert - Smitty

And Polian only WR success was Moose..

If you are so sure he is going to fail.. Why are you here??

Do you enjoy ruining other ppl optimism??

I just don't understand the need to be down on something that hasn't happened yet.. Or to badger other ppl with it. 

This response sums up the whole 17 pages of arguing!

Some of our fan base is hoping that trying the same thing once again, will yield different results!

Some call it optimism, others call it insanity

It's not really the case.. So far Hurney hasn't been the same Gm.. if he was Star, Norwell and KB would have over priced deals already.. Because the major issues with Hurney was trying to keep home grown talent by giving them high dollar deals.. 

There is no reason to be depress and trying to depress everybody else before something happens.

Hurney, having been the longest tenured, picked none. He struggled greatly with WR. And DT’s, my god he was horrible there. Well he sucked at safety also.

  Speak for yourself. Trade a 3rd for a PR who was out of the NFL before the next season. I’m sure you loved it. Not a doubt in my mind.

Okay....

Dude had SEC records for returns and we needed a speedy slot type player.. I wasn't the only person here who liked that pick..

I haven’t seen him do anything GM like except agree to a trade that fell in his lap. 

He kinda botched the whole kicker thing!

Then there is letting two solid players hit the FA market. Can’t at least keep one of the two? I just hope he keeps Star before we end up celebrating the likes of a Hollis Thomas

I also liked the Joe Adams pick! I hated the Elton Brown, Clausen, and Edwards picks
