Numark Posted April 24, 2010 Posted April 24, 2010 Yea, they are getting a lot of picks, but the reason they are in decline is because in past years they haven't been able to replace veteran core players with young players. Look at their 09 draft with 6 picks in the first 3 rounds 1. 2nd Round (32nd overall): Patrick Chung, SS - Oregon 2. 2nd Round (40th overall): Ron Brace, DT - Boston College 3. 2nd Round (41st overall): Darius Butler, CB - Connecticut 4. 2nd Round (58th overall): Sebastian Vollmer, OL - Houston 5. 3rd Round (83rd overall): Brandon Tate, WR - North Carolina 6. 3rd Round (97th overall): Tyrone McKenzie, OLB - South Florida 7. 4th Round (123rd overall): Rich Ohrnberger, OG - Penn State 8. 5th Round (170th overall): George Bussey, OT - Louisville 9. 6th Round (198th overall): Jake Ingram, LS - Hawaii 10. 6th Round (207th overall): Myron Pryor, DT - Kentucky 11. 7th Round (232nd overall): Julian Edelman, QB/WR - Kent State 12. 7th Round (234th overall): Darryl Richard, DT - Georgia Tech seriously, look at their 2008 draft First Round Pick: Jerod Mayo, LB,Second Round Pick: Terrence Wheatley, CB Third Round Pick (78th overall): Shawn Crable, LB Third Round Pick (94th overall): Kevin O'Connell, QB Fourth Round Pick (129th overall): Jonathan Wilhite, CB Fifth Round Pick (153rd overall): Matthew Slater, WR Sixth Round Pick (197th overall): Bo Ruud, LB You can't honestly tell me how amazing those draft picks are.
