Al Davis' Raiders?
Really? The Hawks haven't picked early in the first round with a who pick ever.
I get you don't like the Penny pick and likely pan the trading down season after season too. However, I suspect your basis for the "pick value" of Penny is based upon some non head office draft "experts" who don't get fired if they get the pick wrong. Look at Penny's play in the Snr. Bowl, his record of last season, some film, his health, reported character, and combine results. This is a player that was criminally undervalued and one which likely fits our team better than you might be willing to acknowledge. Besides he doesn't have a lot of mileage on his wheels.
The more I see the more I like the pick. we all develop player blinkers and believe we understand their value but the team usually knows best how the player will fit in our scheme. Besides we don't have Coach Cable here to screw him up anymore.
