    So much for NostraHoorta... 🙂

    What part of not giving up two firsts did you miss? At least 1\2 right. The crystal ball was a little bit murky. 😁

    Well.....in reality, we did give up 2 firsts for OBJ......Peppers...a first round pick, and our #17.

    But was Jabril playing like a first round pick? Saw in another thread, if we had wanted to move Peppers by himself, he was worth a fourth, I'll be generous and say maybe a third. 

    BTW, your remaining draft picks was correct. We swapped back the fifth and fourth round picks in the Vernon trade as part of the OBJ deal.

    I was generous in posting the trade value exchange for OBJ vs 3 players by keeping him worth a late 1st when in reality I felt he was a 3rd. Any other team he would not have been a starter most likely.

    Yes, despite the droolings of one guy on here, I would say that Peppers alone would have been worth a 4th rounder. 

    Nevertheless, do we not now have a hole there to fill.....expecially since we won't be getting Thomas

    And you are undervaluing Peppers...

    Maybe it was my punctuation:    Do we not, now, have a hole to fill?  (answer, yes, we do now have a hole to fill)

    And I didn't make the evaluation...I just repeated it.

    He was OK Tour. To date, wasn't reminding me of Ronnie Lott or Ed Reed....  I guess if you get a fairly solid starter our of a fist round pick, you certainly can't call him a bust...

    Not all 1st rounders are 1st ballot HOFers.

  • Didn't pep essentially outright win us like 2 games and was also the greatest contributor in a couple other wins?

    Not all first rounders produce like 4th rounders either.

    No.  There is no doubt that he helped some.  Any starting strong safety is expected to help some. He did OK,  but he was not irreplaceable. Again, the issue is not how good he was, but was he deemed expendable in order to get a top notch proven talent.   He was....by John Dorsey...and NO ONE ELSE"S opinion counts.

    Some first round picks like Justin Gilbert, Johnny Manziel, and Mike Junkin wouldn't survive in the AAF.

    FS,  SS  whatever.  I am sure there are plenty of each that were 4th rounders that were as good as Peppers has been.  You probably know them better than I.

    I have never put anyone on ignore. (not even Ghoolie)  I am not a chickenshit asshole  who is afraid of someone disagreeing with me or learning something new like some of you apparently are.
