I suppose you're about to tell me how we hit on Price, Bates, and Hubbard this year? 2 of those 3 being terrible players currently. 1 being Good.
No, but I will point out that we drafted three Pro Bowl players in 2010 (Gresham, Dunlap, Atkins); 2 more Pro Bowlers and a top starter in 2011 (Dalton, Green, Boling); and 4 more players in 2012 who all received huge free agent contracts (Kirkpatrick, Zeitler, Sanu, Jones) plus another guy who was a 5 year starter in the league (Iloka).
That is a ton of talent in three years. I don't expect drafts like that every year, but it is not impossible
