I think JR has done OK with his draft picks

OK,,,,so no one wants to give JR credit for his draft picks. Including me. But a quick look at the recent picks shows he has made some good picks ( guys who have contributed ), some unfortunate ones, ( injuries and guys who the G Men decided not to resign ) and, of course, some misses.

Since 2004 if you look at the first three rounds of each draft you find Manning, Tuck, Snee, The Jeep,(JPP), Kiwanuka, Pugh, Beatty, Alford, Webster, Prince, Beckham. Each of these guys have already contributed to the cause.

Then you find guys who we still keep in our prayers, Bromley, Randle, Hankins, Moore, Jernigan.

Then there are the "what ifs ?",,,Phillips, Thomas, Wilson, Ross, Smith, Jones, these guys could play. And play well. But injuries hit. And I just can't blame JR for that.

Can you imagine a defensive backfield of Phillips and Thomas in their prime? Plus Prince and Jones? And David Wilson running back kicks?

Then you have the Nicks and Mannigham and Joseph picks,,,guys who were good picks but for one reason or another their relationship with the Giants went South. That isn't on JR.

Then we have the ' What was he thinking? " Hosley, Austin, Moss, Sintim, Wilkinson. These are the only glaring misses in the first 3 rounds I can find in the past 10 years.

Am I off?
