How the heck can we miss out on players like RB QB and TE that we needed when our old reject front office Spielman picks up a good QB an TE while we founder in the abysis.
Please let me know this is terrible, welcome to Suckville

The pick is fine. It's the situation the team is in that's the problem. Thomas has decent speed and is a good replacement for a worn-down Ronnie Brown and Ricky Williams. Good player, good value. Pick up another RB in the fourth round though with big play ability.

Unbelievable..........looking forward to 2012 draft............if this staff is not around. Hell they'd screw up a #1 pick. -

God do we SUCK

Mallett goes to the pats as "their top rated QB on the board" uuggghhhh. That should end the debate as to wether he is any good.

It's unreal how many people are ready to condemn these picks, Loosen up people it's a wait and see game, Daniel Thomas may be a stud for us, maybe maybe not, wait and see. The front office has a plan and has not shared it with the rest of us so if you take the time and try to understand the plan it may make sense. OR we just might be up the creek :)

All I know is that so far the "plan" has produced a pair of 7-9 seasons, seen most of the coaching staff dismissed, seen a lack of QB, seen safe safe and more safe, and now seen us pick a guard in round 1 and pick a worse version of Ronnie Brown with fumbleitis in round 2 after trading half our remaining picks to do it. -

As for slow, he ran the 40 with a low of 4.52, Mark Ingram's low. Ingram's 10 yard split was 1.53, Thomas's was 1.54. Please, spare the BS.

By far the worst FO in the league today. Congrats to the Patriots ensuring they'll be AFC Champs for the next decade at least, while we ensure another mediocre season, with no QB to speak of.

I think you forget how bad the wanny years were.

BB recognizes talent at QB, we twiddle our thumbs.

Btw, fun fact: There are more "explosive players/speedsters" at the RB position in the later rounds (Devine, Lewis, Locke, Fannin, Rodgers, Grigsby, Jones, etc...). Can we wait until everything plays out until we start bashing this front office some more? IIRC this front office has been pretty damn solid in the off seasons they have been here. -
I think its pointless to compare to past regiemes, done and gone. But comparing Thomas to say Mallett would be fair. Obviously we dont know how they will play however this is what I know:
1) Teams do better drafting top qb talent and getting lower rb talent not vice versa
2) Mallett was thought of by many as the top QB talent physically including NE
3) Pats draft well and hit far more than miss and had Mallett as their top qb
Dont know where thay had Thomas graded out, but given that they didnt pick him sooner when they had a RB need I would say not as high as Mallett. So for me I am more likely to question a team that passes on a high talent at QB, a needed position that requires top talent (Mia) than I am a team that drafts well and passed on Thomas despite the RB need taking Mallett with no QB need knowing its greater value (NE). Maybe its just me but I would rather take a chance and draft top QB talent in the later part of the second than top RB talent when both are needs, assuming both are top talents and not sure about Thomas. -
Nothing is worse than the Raiders. How they continue to blow BB is beyond me. Thank God BB does not know how to draft.

Watch the Nebraska game (a good college defense) and watch them just bottle him up time and time again. -

Thomas did well racking up yards against mediocre teams, then didn't perform so well when going up against a bigger faster defense like Nebraska. Now he is facing quality defenses every week. I don't think it bodes well, sample size or no. I welcome him to prove me wrong.
