I agree here...I wish him all the best and laugh at those that question his dedication. What a joke.

Which has nothing to do with how good of a draft pick he was. Don't get me wrong, I think Myron Rolle is a GREAT guy--the type we need our kids looking up to instead of the attention whore Diva WR's--but the fact that he's great in the classroom doesn't make him a higher draft pick. I probably would have nabbed him in the 5th-6th if I needed a safety.

Re: Late round gold?

George Selvie, DE, STL, 7th round pick - The guy was as good as JPP or better the year before this year. A big steal.

Jonathan Dwyer, RB, PIT, 6th round pick - At one point he was seen as a late 1st, early 2nd round back before his terrible combine.

Mike Williams, WR, TB, 4th round pick - Before some off field issues, he was a late 1st, early 2nd round WR.

There's too many to list: Perrish Cox, Ricky Sapp, O'Brien Schofield, Cam Thomas, Michael Hoomanawanui, Geno Atkins, Akwasi Owusu-Ansah, Reshad Jones are all good players.

Winced everytime the Texans passed on him.

For the Texans I am going to go with Dickerson. With Andre, Jacoby, Owen Daniels and Schaub throwing him the ball I think he'll get a good shot to put up some solid rookie numbers if he can get some snaps.

Carlton Mitchell. Guy has all the attributes of being a #1 in the NFL, just played in the wrong system.

How about the fact he was a Second Team All American? He wasn't just an academic All American, and I think from the way the FSU defense fell apart in 2009 it is evident he played a big role in keeping that defense up to par before he left. In the 2009 Draft he would have been a 2nd-3rd Round pick, so getting him in the 6th in 2010 is a big steal.

Jonathan Dwyer...Saw his name above I think Pittsburgh may have struck gold here. I really thought he would go in the third round at the latest.

Re: Late round gold?

Didn't he have some last minute health concerns just before the draft? I know he tested positive at the Combine, but for a legitimate prescription.
