NONE of those guys are going to get you to a super bowl. They are exactly what I'm saying they are..............junk round role players. Bart Scott and Jarret Johnson. Not Ray Lewis, Ed Reed, Peter Boulware, Todd Heap, Chris McAllister...............first round blue chip talent. Those guys win your super bowls, not junk rounders.

I'll take a team that hits on first rounders and 4th-6th rounders over a team that hits on 1st and 2nd rounders but whiffs on 4th - 6th.  The latter is finishing in last place in the division.

I'll give you a good stat. Over the last 5 years, in the entire 4th round there have been only five players who have made even one pro bowl. FIVE out of what, 194 picks? Keep dreamin with Ozzie.

Pro Bowls mean absolutely nothing.  It's a total popularity contest with big market teams winning most of the time.
