Archives: The JPP draft pick

First of all, here is the link to the April, 2010 archives which include the Jason Pierre-Paul pick on April 22.

There are several articles about the pick but the best one is the real-time reaction

I remember hating the pick, so I'm relieved to see I wasn't hysterical about it. Here was my reaction:

JPP, whatever

may be good, may never start a game.

The reason I’m disappointed here is because we really could have used a bolstering of the O-Line with clear, safe bets like Bulaga or Iupati.

Our offense started turning good this year, but this O-Line is getting old and isn’t going to make it through this year uninjured again. The value was absolutely there — I can’t BELIEVE the Pack got Bulaga in the late 20s! — and it was an area of need.

I think the Giants really dropped the ball here by going project at an overstocked position when there is clear value and low bust potential in an area of need. Behind a stronger, younger O-Line, this offense could really start to open up — and the run game would improve, too.

I generously give this pick a D. Even if JPP turns into an all-pro, it can’t get better than a B. Because we really passed up a clear, obvious opportunity to improve the O-Line, which really needs it.

and,

“Haitian Sensation” … I’ll keep my fingers crossed to be hearing that from my television… in 2011 …

So, I was right about the O-line but wrong about the grade. If only I had shut up sooner!

Only a handful were completely for, or at least open-minded about, the pick. Here are some of the best:

Remember what Ernie A said. You can never have too many pass rushers

JR rules.

BBV doesn’t.

I still trust JR.

Let’s see how it plays out.

What follows should be intriguing.

So many possibilities.
