The 2008 Draft: Six Years Later

One could argue TT grabbed the best WR, TE and G of the full draft class without a 1st round pick. All while still wasting two 2nd rounders. Not too shabby.

As much as Pat Lee was basically worthless to GB for a 2nd rounder, I think he gets an asterisk next to his bust label.  The guy stepped up and held his own in the SB and made a huge difference in that game.  If he plays like crap, GB loses that game - simple as that.  

He's still a bust, but you can't say he didn't make a difference in winning a title.  Sure, it was over the course of 2/3 of a game, but it was the biggest and most important game and it came at a time when GB players were dropping like flies and the team was leaking oil badly.  

No question Brohm-icon was the biggest waste of a pick in that draft.  Ugh.  What a disaster he was.

Bummer. I wanted Chad Henne too who isn't much better, but went the pick right after Brohm-icon.

Oh well. Can't pick 'em all! All you can do is select the very best player you can with the information provided at the time of the selection & move along. 

However, I'll take TT over every other GM in the league. I like his 'quiet' steely-eyed assassin style
