Kudos to the scouting staff for doing their due diligence regarding the 2009 draft.

Most draft picks are gambles. Not sure what you're getting at there. Percy Harvin was a definite gamble, as well as Adrian Peterson. Look at how many players never pan out at all. Our how about Donald Driver? Clifton? I could keep going on. Fact of the matter is, most players are a gamble, and you hope they pan out. Thompson is NOT the only one that "gambles," in your words.

Now, I will give you the Harrell pick (thank you NonStop for finally correcting that spelling). I didn't like it at the time and still don't. However, one bust of that manner is acceptable with as many hits as he has. I can definitely live with it. I think Thompson has learned from it as well, and that's all you can really ask.

Finally a positive thread about Ted Thompson.....

I have always thought good about TT. Finally others are starting to realize it. Now, just to convince dhazer and Gravedigga.

Nobody will ever convice me that there is anything positive about Ted Thompson, even up to my last dying breath.
And lest you think about my feelings being all about letting any QB we ever let go; sorry I was way ahead of him on that one.
Kudos to Ted Thompson for that.

It must really suck to stubbornly root against the general manager who has this team poised on the brink of its second playoff run in three seasons. I wonder how many other teams have been so fortunate in the past three years.

Then again, I'm not a big fan of our head coach, so what do I know.

I try to look at things objectively. He has had bad years, and I'll rightfully criticize him when he does.

2009 was an A year. If he keeps doing years like '09, I'll like him.

You can't hit on everything, but I feel we are in good hands with Ted, minus a few clunkers here and there!
