Datone's Neck Injury......· Page 3

And that IS the difference. Harrell was damaged goods before he was selected. Jones was not, and played 3 years for GB before suffering this neck injury.

You may lump them into the same category, but I won't.

Before this year, I would agree that Jones was a disappointment. However, he's had a very good year with a number of impact plays so far. I hope to hear soon that this neck injury is nothing to worry about.

My opinion (worth exactly what you're paying for it) is that Jones was an "average first rounder". If a GM drafting in the second half of the round (which Ted Thompson usually has) gets this quality every time (which Ted Thompson hasn't), he's doing what you want with those first round picks.

He's not a bust, even if he never plays again. He was playing like an average first round pick should be playing (i.e., better than an average non-first round pick) this year. He wasn't going to be a home run. But he also showed more than enough to me that he doesn't get the "bust" label.

Nick Perry, on the other hand ...

And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

Is there actually a injury report on his neck? We are throwing him to the curb without even knowing what the injury is. I think he has been a very solid performer this season. Having to fill this position in the draft with so many other glaring holes to fill could really hurt the quality of our draft. We all know Tightwad Teddy won't go into free agency and fill holes in the team with any kind of quality players.
