    In hindsight, this team should of just drafted Jaylon Smith with their first 2nd round pick.

    This team severely lacks athleticism and coverage ability at the inside linebacker spot.

    I've seen the argument this team needed depth at OLB, but if you think someone like Mount or a guy taken later in the draft couldn't get you 5 tackles and a sack on a half ending Hail Mary attempt, you're lying to yourself.

    Dodd has been just as useless and invisible as Smith would have been this season. For a team that is building to compete and contend in the future, that makes more sense than a guy who is gonna be a mediocre at best depth guy for the next 3 years.

    We have 2 2nd round picks who are essentially just red-shirt rookies. Yet people were oppose to getting Smith for that reason.

    Dodd has been a Dudd as some have said, but he"ll at least be able to contribute at some point

    I dont even know if Smith has a real shot at the NFL anymore

    how about Austin Johnson, WTF is he at? @xhrr

    Should have.

    The reason many make the mistake of typing it as "should of" is because when the phrase is heard, it's typically by the contraction of it - "should've"

    Very common mistake these days.

    Whatever happened to "You can't judge a draft class until 3 or 4 years down the road"?

    It's the guys rookie season. He was injured during most of TC IIRC. Maybe he will be a dud or a stud or something in between, but it's way to early to say either way.

    It is a rare rookie that actually contributes much of anything that is not RB anyways...learning curve.
