That all you got?

Seriously, his questions was "Anyone that wants to argue that drafting high for 2 guards didnt equal difference makers are nuts?"

Are you honestly saying that Nelson and Smith are not making a difference?

Your linking to a stat showing how bad our defense is keeping opposing offenses out of the endzone DOES NOT negate the fact that we have two Offensive Linemen making an IMPACT on our offense.

If we had drafted two more high defensive players, might our defense be better? Sure.

But, our offense would be worse than it is with two different starters in there other than Nelson and Smith.

You are still not providing a counter-argument to his question.

Which defender did you want at #6 who was still on the board? Hey, you get to cherry pick! Find the one with the most stats and say THAT guy! Go for it.

But, you best choice is probably Vander Esch whom NO ONE would have picked top ten.

But, you go ahead and throw a name up there and maintain that drafting HIM instead of Nelson would have put the team further ahead. Go on.....

So, instead, I will go with Puck and say that you are nuts since you don't appear to want to debate whether Nelson is making an impact or not. You just want to yell at the wind.

Peachy....
