    I think I actually do have a pretty good sense of humor.

    After all, I am going on with the fact you think my ceiling potential in life was a McDonalds crew member, then assumed I probably only clean toilets.
    All because my opinions about Dodd's ceiling being a rotational/backup pass rusher.

    So for now on, when you talk me, refer to me as "King of Clean Bowls."

    So roll out my double quilted 2 ply Charmin to walk on, as tiles or concrete is beneath me. And bow as I raise my lavatory brush scepter.

    Your GoTitans Toilet God has **** to handle.

    There were better picks on the board, but the teams who made those picks gaffed on other rounds where we didn't.

    Michael Thomas was a great pick, but Sheldon Rankins, selected by NO a few spots after our All Pro tackle, was horrific in year one.

    Chris Jones looks like an excellent pick, but the guy the Chiefs selected in the same round in which we picked Byard was cut in year 1.

    NE needed to hit in round 2 since they had no first round pick, but he may not even make the roster.

    I could go on, but you get my point. You win some, you lose some.

    And let's stop using the "almost a first round pick" line. There's a massive different between Jalen Ramsey and the guys selected at the end of the first. I was able to provide 15 players who were bad or didn't play in year one per your request, all of which selected before Dodd. And the vast majority of which were selected in the latter half of the first round.

    Again, you're expecting perfection and instant gratification from the draft, and that has never happened, nor will it ever. If you can name one GM in the history of sports who never made a bad pick, I'll cease to argue with your criticisms.

    It's too early to jump to any conclusion. As another member pointed out, there are many picks who others on this forum were high on , and they ultimately turned out to be awful picks. Players flash early and never develop into consistent players, while others struggle and eventually put it together.

    Can you give a guy a season at full health to see how he goes before you label him anything?

    Jesus, hate to imagine what you guys are like if you had kids.

    Isn't your criticism of Dodd offset by your love affair with Myles Jack, who was also extremely overrated coming out of school and horrific as a rookie?

    Facts are facts. Kevin Dudd was not good in college. He was a non-factor in 15 of the 21 games he played. Then he got hot in the last five games of his senior season.

    Facts are facts. Myles Jack was less productive than Jayon Brown at UCLA . Yet you were duped into thinking he was good just because he could play RB.

    The fact is that you said 5 years from Jack world be worth the #15 pick. And in 20% of his hypothetical career, he had tallied fewer than two tackles per game. I'm sure everyone takes the garbage opinions you present as facts very seriously.
