If he wasn't drafted by Detroit he would have been drafted much lower. I don't think he was better than Chad Greenway who went #17 that year.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29764383.post-12350530518073424372009-09-24T12:21:34.985-04:002009-09-24T12:21:34.985-04:00Maddog52,

Last season, that whole season, seemed to get to him in the same it did Kevin Jones, who was also a pretty player when the Lions got him.<br />CaputoPat Caputohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05102662407927366439noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29764383.post-79308194050284027852009-09-23T12:17:29.550-04:002009-09-23T12:17:29.550-04:00Can't we say that about a lot of lions.. True...Can't we say that about a lot of lions.. Truely! I tell you the biggest blunder I think the lions made was the Mike Williams one. The other ones you could kind of see why they would take the players they did (first round only). but to me I saw Ware and Merrimen and was like dude they are going to pick williams. <br /><br />I like Ernie, but he hasn't showed up in a lot of games eithermaddog52https://www.blogger.com/profile/11049733361898347116noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29764383.post-33901322354754152032009-09-22T13:33:18.719-04:002009-09-22T13:33:18.719-04:00Agreed about Ernie Sims.

In fact, against Adrian Peterson, I couldn't tell you how many times I watched Sims be the first man to greet AP, and then get faked out of his jock. One of the times I swore he tore up his own knee.Stevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11082479318637459726noreply@blogger.com
