First pick of the draft(s) anyone?

Some might point toward the team picking up Cordy Glenn and Bobby Hart, and claim that they indeed took some action.  However, I put that into the "too little, too late" pile, not unakin to pissing on a forest fire in an attempt to put it out.  Hell, they let a future HOF Tackle walk out the door, by giving him the only out of line offer that he received.  They could have addressed the OL needs more thoroughly in any of the past 3 drafts, but they chose not to.  Instead, they chose to ride or die with the bad picks that they selected.

I forget who we took in the 1st round this past draft.

You can be mad at the picks all you want, but they have tried to address it. Cordy Glenn was about the best we could have hoped for. We recently spent a 1st and 2nd round on Olinemen. We recently re-signed Boling and we replaced our oline coach.

You can put it in the "too little, too late" category if you want; but they've tried.
