They reached for the guy...if drafting a guy 10 picks early because they're not used to drafting top 10 is another 'homerun'...then yikes.
Why don't you tell me what LB they could have picked in 2nd. And if that's true why didn't the LBs picked in 2nd come anywhere near his production. While I agree with what you're saying about LB statistics, the guy played great this year. it wasn't all about his #s. He was a hell of a player in college, and had agreat rookie yr.
