If it were any position other than CB or WR, I would doubt the selection. But they have no trouble picking those guys out of the heap. They know what to look for.

But that said, dissing the pick is a mug's game. 50% of all early draft picks bust. Its like predicting its going to rain this week. There is nothing unusual about it and predicting it is trivial. Of course the news would treat it like a earthquake, but by no rational definition is it rare.

Picking a ILB at that spot, with worse overall ratings, would have been a worse choice from a likelihood to bust standpoint. They don't award you extra wins at the end of the year for a pick that busted but was at a position of need. You take the player most likely to succeed.
