These guys look like the real deal. This would be the first time I can remmeber we actually got productivity from 2 players after the 2nd round. Keith to me looks great

I just posted about that on another thread. I also said Harrington is going play in the NFL for a long time. When you consider he's moving from playing DE his entire college career to LB, he has been fantastic. He looks just fine in coverage, and had two sacks last night.

Forgot to mention Adrian Wilson..... Again, there are too many to name.

Not really when you start trying to get two or more from the same draft. Its one of the main reasons the team has been 5-11 almost every year since 1990.

For every draft in AZ up until 2003 we got almost nothing in the later rounds.

(Or in the first two rounds either really-our 2nd round picks were especially bad: Tony Jeffrey,Walter Reeves,Anthony Thompson,Mike Jones,Tony Sacca,Chuck Levy, Leland McElroy, Johnny Rutledge, and Michael Stone)

Recently we're at least getting a couple of players.

Hayes and Wells 2003
Dockett and Smith 2004
Green and (finally) Elton Brown 2005
Pope and Watson 2006
Patrick and Breaston 2007

Totally agree.

TH is a real surprise and I like him very much.

BK looks like the real deal also. We need Olinemen like him with his quickness and ability to pull.

This years draft looks like a winner to me. All 7 guys could make the final 53. I said could, some could be on the PS. The FO did their job.

What's nice about both Keith and Hightower is that they don't have to be rushed into action play right away and can continue to get more and more solid as they learn the pro game. (And, what's especially encouraging is that, each new time they play, they look better than the time before).

In other words, instead of being flashes in the proverbial pan, they can develop into solid quality pros.

Do you mean 2 players in the same draft class? Watson, Breaston, Dockett, and etc. were all our guys. McClown, KVB, and etc. Too many to name.

KVB was a second round pick. Besides, are you really counting someone you refer to as "McClown" being good?

2 players inder round 2 same class. If we had too many of those to name why dont we have about 30 superbowl wins right now?
