I hope the wasted picks of the past Zo (2nd round),and Gibson (4th round) don't come back to haunt us like Vrable and Fraley did.

I liked Gibson as our 4th reciever too.

I really do not understand all this hype over Gibson???

What did he do in camp or preseason that warranted this fan club? I just did NOT see it at all! He had a decent career at GA, but nothing spectcular. I loved the selection when I first heard it, but after I heard 3-4 interviews with the guy, wow did he sound arrogant, cocky, and way to confident. Then when I saw his lackluster style of play.....I liked the move of releasing him.

another draft pick well spent

Wasn't there a question on his motivation. Could had plenty of talent, but just doesn't want to go all out?

Draft picks are all projections with alot of uncertainty factored in (even in the early part of the first round, there's potential for huge busts). At the time of Gibson's pick, most people on here (myself included) were congratulating the Steelers on fantastic value in Round 4 (due to his upside - hoped his inconsistency and other negatives would disappear) . . .

When we look back on this draft in a couple of years time, I reckon we'll think it was a pretty good one . . . Miller (if he stays injury free), McFadden, Boo Wallace and Kemeatu should all have at least above average careers and in the case of I reckon Miller, Wallace and Kemeatu quite likely, exceptional ones. Essex looks better than most of us thought when he was select (jury still out on him). Noah Herron may be pretty good for a 7th rounder and who knows with Shaun Nua? (he's shown flashes) . . .

I wouldn't be too concerned at a few poor picks - we've made some pretty inspired picks too . . .

well we got morgan so i don't care about gibson anymore, after reading all this stuff on him my mind has changed a lot about him. i hope he does well in miami, but i'm glad we took this head case of this team, just upset we lost a fourth round pick

Well when they compared him to Plexiglass I guess they were closer with their prediction than they thought. A complete selfish non producing bum with an attitude
