Here was my criteria in answering the question.

1. In this football era, which would be better to have, a probowl LOT, or a probowl DT?

2. The Donald pick was a good one, but not even the Rams must have known he would be this good or he would have been picked sooner. Therefore, there was an element of luck in that pick. Lucking into a gem in the middle of the first round is really nice, but does not negate the wrong call on the #2.

3. You've got to get the #2 overall pick right, or it really hurts you. Although the GRob pick wasn't considered a bad pick at the time, there were concerns, a debate on the "safer" pick of Matthews, and it was known that he would be a project. I agree with those who say you don't pick projects at that draft level.

So I voted in the small minority - Yes, it does.

On the other hand, not even a competent or star LOT would have been able to save the Fisher offense.

But when Whitworth is soon done, the Rams will still be looking for that left tackle.

  In terms of draft success, does GRob busting outweigh Donald’s success?

  I think just a decent player would have been a good result at #2.

  The reason NO is the #2 pick

  Your reply is why I think the poll results may be inaccurate.
