Spike, how could you say such things about a "draft expert" who was "in the room"?! JAFF would be ashamed.

That's a very valid point, but you're definitely using the benefit of hindsight to come to that conclusion. I'm sure Bill Tobin didn't want to lose his job and was trying to get the best player for the 1994 Colts rather than thinking "I need to set up my successor to draft that freshman QB at Tennessee". Who knows, though? After all, according to JAFF, Tobin is a big brain draft expert as well, and Kiper is a nobody, even though we all clearly know who was right about that scenario in 1994.
