The experts have already put the "anal" back in "analysis" with their neverending regurgitations of how they feel Tim Ruskell did this year in the draft, but I'm going to tell you why this is one of the best drafts the team has ever seen.
The depth the 'Hawks acquired this time out is nothing less than outstanding. They addressed every need the roster was missing, and filled some holes that are definitely going to make the team more competitive this year. But I'm getting ahead of myself already, and that's probably because I'm completely wired off my ass for no reason at all at 12:33 a.m. on a Tuesday night (Wednesday morning?) Alas, this is what unemployment does to me.
When it was announced that the first acquisition of the day was some defensive end from USC, my heart sank and I almost spit out my beer in pure shock. "Lawrence Jackson, defensive end from USC," they said, as the crowd fell silent at the sound of the name. Clearly it wasn't registering with anyone, and we hung our heads in disappointment.
