Re: Playing it safe?

And were we not safe on the 2nd round pick with Avery? I literally threw my wallet across the room when I heard it. We could've got him at the top of the 3rd round, and although I am coming around on him, I am still not that pleased. DeSean Jackson had work ethic issues, Kelly had knee concerns and Hardy had character concerns. We went the safe route again and it is really killing me. I find it funny how Haslett went out of his way to mention Dorsey in the Chris Long press conference. I like the Long pick, but I don't really like the Avery pick. Once again we went the safe route and took a player with less to lose on and not only that but we reached on him by about 35 players. There is a reason why the draft is an inexact science and sometimes you have to take more talent to compensate with the risk because there is still a risk involved of not panning out at your spot. Hopefully Avery makes me eat my words on sundays but I can't help but be a little frustrated.
