First pick at #81...didn't know that I assumed they had picks that is super low for a first pick for a team that wasn't anything too special
thanks for the info
I think the thought process still makes sense though...I would be loyal to a team that took a chance when many teams passed. Everyone thought 65 players were better. I have heard many players say similar things about the team that drafted them.
Ask Theo (but don't ask him about anything else)
