    How does that suck at all? There's a bunch of really, really good players there. I'm missing how it's so much worse than any other draft.

    And you didn't mention Brandon Mebane, Stewart Bradley, Tanard Jackson, Jermon Bushrod, and Steve Breaston.

        Jamaal Anderson was drafted this year by the Falcons that year. That totally sucked. We had the 8th pick in a 7 player top ten.

          Deon Anderson and Anthony Spencer are doing well here in Dallas.

              That WR class is one of the best WR classes to ever come out IMO

                  Im not 100% but I'm pretty sure that the bold are all starters. a good majority of these guys are top 20 in the league at their respected position, I underlined the guys who IMO are top 20 at that position. Not to mention the fact that about 14-15 of these guys were in this years postseason. And wasn't this supposed to be that "incredible" Giants draft class? Why would you hate? lol

                    So about 30 solid players is a great draft?

                    You have the elite guys (AP, Megatron, Revis, JoeThom, Willis, Gaither, Rice), very good guys (Celek, Lynch, Griffin, Staley, PierreThom, Meriweather, Olsen, Hall, Wright, Woodley, SSmith) and then the rest of the good guys.

                    Perhaps 'completely suck' is too strong, but is this an average class in terms of quality?

                      You could say that the "leagues best" at WR, RB, LB, CB, and LT are from this draft, lol.

                        Megatron and Joe Thomas are the best at their positions?

                        I can see the arguments for AP, Revis and even Willis.

                          Look at the 04 draft.

                          Just pro bowlers:

                          Manning, Fitzgerald, Rivers, Taylor, Winslow, Roy Williams, DeAngelo Hall, Big Ben, Vilma, Tommie Harris, Shawn Andrews, Will Smith, Wilfork, Steven Jackson, Chris Snee, Bob Sanders, Darnell Dockett, Nate Kaeding, Nick Hardwick, Chris Cooley, Matt Schaub, Nate Vasher, Jared Allen, Michael Turner, Andy Lee (P) and undrafted guys like Welker, Willie Parker, Jason Peters, McBriar (P) and Jon Condo (LS).

                          That doesn't even include guys like Randall Gay, Malcom Floyd, Patrick Crayton, Robert Geathers, Jerricho Cotchery, Shaun Phillips, Bernard Berrian, Devery Henderson, Tank Johnson, Jake Grove, Juliu Jones, Tatum Bell, Igor Olshansky, Karlos Dansby, Ben Watson, Kevin Jones, Vernon Carey, DJ Williams, Lee Evans and Robert Gallery.

                          That's 50 guys who have had either a solid career or become elite players.

                          Or is the 2004 draft one of the best in recent memory?
