Not that we took bad guys — I really thought Lynch and Collins were good picks that would turn into something. And I thought Rivers was a safe pick in that he was one of the more ready and stable LBs.
I was disappointed with the Rivers pick, but that was because of our needs. I figured he wasn't going to do much for us since we didn't have the DTs to keep OL off of him. He was a solid player for us, but never lived up to the draft status. Luckily our drafting has improved since then.
You can always trust an dishonest man to be dishonest. Honestly, it's the honest ones you have to look out for.
