Round 1- Tyson Jackson (we all know what we think of him)
Round 2- None (Traded to NE for Cassel and Vrabel)
Round 3- Alex Magee (No longer with team, traded to tampa for I think a 5th rounder)
Round 4- Donald Washinton (Didn't work out as a nickle, converted to safety and well we've witnessed how this has worked out)
Round 5- Collin Brown (Never Made the active roster for us, was gone in 2010 and played for the Hartford Colonials, then with the Ravens and is now with the Bills)
Round 6- Quinten Lawrence (Started as a WR, converted to DB this year to help save his career, has never really made it off our practice squad roster)
Round 7- Jarvaris Williams (Didn't make the active roster until December, was activated due to an injury to Kolby Smith, remember him haha, spent 2010 season and 2011 pre-season with Seattle, was cut this year, and is now on the Houston texans practice squad)
Of this ENTIRE draft class, I would not consider one of these players a Success!
Players we could have had with our 1st 2 picks:
Round 1- B.J. Raji, Brian Orakpo, & Andre Smith
Round 3- Micheal Johnson (DE Cincinatti Bengals now..I remember watching this dude play at Georgie Tech, and was a beast, would have made a nice OLB oposite Hali), Mike Wallace, Laderius Webb,
