Curry cut by Giants.
First off, the whole theory of "Best Player Available" has and always will be hogwash and this pick proves it. The fact is, despite all the scouting reports, no one knows who the BPA is. The best way to draft is to draft for need. It's hit or miss either way and you make your best guess, but at least you filled a frakking need, not left the left tackle position woefully open to take a guy the team didn't really need to begin with.
Secondly, LBers don't go in the top 10 picks. Ruskell terribly overpaid for Curry.
Thirdly, omg did I take flak for saying these same things four years ago. It feels good to be vindicated, but it sucks that he turned out to be a bust. In the end, however, what's best about all this is that our #4 pick only four years ago was a complete bust and it doesn't even matter because P&J are here and we have geniuses in our front office.
