Drafting Orlando Brown Jr. would've been a good Draft pick right about now.

I honestly don't see how anyone could have an issue with us going CB in the 2nd round. Our secondary was hot trash last year. You can't address every need on your roster every year with a 1st or 2nd round pick and evidently we liked Jackson better than any OT available at the time. I have no problem with that. We didn't have a crystal ball to show us that we'd lose Matt Kalil and Daryl Williams indefinitely before the regular season even got here.

We could've traded our 5th, and maybe a 3rd next year for a 3rd rounder though............and moved up.

Yeah, because trading future picks has always worked out splendidly for Hurney, right?

No thanks on that one. I've seen how that movie ends a few times.

I'm not crowning him, but he's starting while Jackson was backing up Keyvon Seymour the first game. LOLZ. Good try though. 

So you’re basing a player’s worth on whether they start in Game 1 of the Preseason...got it. Never mind that Jackson started Game 2. Guess Amini Silatolu has earned your respect since Rivera had named him starter before he was injured.

How is it hindsight when he was wanting Orlando Brown before the draft?

If you draft someone and then bring up we should have drafted someone else.  That's called hindsight.

Orlando Brown had a terrible combine and his pro day wasn't much better.  He had bust written all over him and drafting Jackson was a better choice.

Our 1st four picks were picks of need.  So far they have shown to be good choices.

You point out the Brown has been good for Baltimore in Preseason but so has Jackson.

While I agree we need an OT I am not going to do the hindsight thing and complain about not drafting a OT instead of a CB (which we desperately needed)
