No argument here. That's why I pointed to Willie and 'the dirty old penny you never can seem to get rid of' that is Andre Smith (he just KEEPS coming back!).
I'm not really trying to defend Blackburn. I just think it (the 3rd round comment) was more of an overall generalization from a guy who shouldn't be involved in scouting/drafting anyway. Stick to contracts and stuff Troy. Let the big boys handle the picking of the players, you handle getting them to sign on the dotted line.
