The "Big Name" OT's were gone at #18. Smith traded down to #26 for an additional #3 (RB- Steve Slaton) & #6 pick (S Dominique Barber).

Most of us wanted a trade down scenario, and I think we got a very good one. It does no good to carp about the results now, lets wait until this season is over and see who contributes, and in what category. I have to say I am extremely pleased with our Draft, and with how well Smith & Kubiak worked together.
I will still say that Brown was a mid 2nd rounder based on his skill level, and as such was a reach. Now the fact that the Chargers where ready to reach for him with the next pick does not change my feeling that he was a mid 2nd to early 3rd round pick.

Just because Miami drafts Ginn top ten does not mean he has top 10 skills.

I am looking forward to late July and the start of training camp. I hope they open the practice to the fans again, because I loved being able to see them in person before the game. That is when Davis started to stand out to a few of us on the old site.

I want to see Mario and Brown going head to head. Then I will know how wrong I was on the guy.
