Yeah, it is. Late first round is a drop off from a precipice almost. That’s why you’ll often see teams trade out if they think they can get the player in the second round. And at 33 he would have been a steal, some mock drafts had him going on the first round with a high grade

And those mocks were stupid too. There is a reason that the worst case scenario threads were littered with RB in the first. I'm not playing revisionist history because the Jags made a bad pick and I have to wrap my biases around it to make myself feel better. Go look at all of the excitement over all of the studs available when we went on the clock. Not a single person saying Etienne. Virtually everyone would have said it was a dumb pick half an hour ago, and they would have been right. Nothing has changed. Stop being a slave to your fanaticism.
