Yeah, but it's the Raiders. They spent a 1st round pick on Jamarcus Russell. Not like they're going to do anything productive with that pick ;-)
He was a bust, but wasn't he a consensus #1?  Whoever was there was taking him?  It's the Derrius Heyward-Bey type picks that leave people scratching their heads.

True, but we're talking about NFL scouts who rate a QB on their height and their "arm talent", i.e. being able to throw 80 yards on his knees, rather than on whether or not they're actually good at playing QB.
We see it every year.

Every time anyone tries to change the topic, Tessitore just tries to grovel at QBs.  I think Mike Greenberg was the worst, but it might be this self important asshat.

What the hell were the Giants thinking going for 2 down 8?  Ended up not mattering, but didn't seem logical to me.  I understand his logic he gave, but don't agree with the move.

I am getting concerned about the wasted draft from last year. Jarrad Davis sucks, and Teez Tabor, well, also sucks.
After getting beat all afternoon long yesterday, Tabor is now dead last (#114 out of 114) cornerbacks, according to PFF.  This is a guy the Lions wasted a 2nd round pick on.

Wait, you just realized this now? It was a wasted 2nd round pick the minute it was made. Tabor never lived up to the 5* recruit hype at Florida.
Not sure what the Lions cap situation is, I honestly don't pay much attention to that stuff, but they need to cut Tabor and make a trade for someone else before the trade deadline.

The Vikings wasted a 1st round pick on Laquon Treadwell and then were dumb enough to throw the ball to him on 4th down

Former Husker quarterback Zac Taylor is considered a favorite to be the Cleveland Browns’* next head coach.
