Is there a fanbase out there that would do the same?

Real question.

I know Thomas is a great pass blocking tackle but he's average on the run.

Who else would still draft Thomas before Peterson?

To be fair, you take the premium, franchise LT over the premium, hyped up college RB 10/10 times.

Every. Single. Time.

It's debatable whether you agree with this strategy, but it's employed by virtually every franchise.

And I still stand by this unless it's an all-world RB you never take them in the first 10 picks. But AD was an all world RB. But Go lineman 9/10 times.

Joe Thomas has been great, he's the best tackle in football. Maybe you should ask why Oakland picked :jawalrus: over him? Why was Levi Brown and Laron Landry also taken before him?

Get off Clevelands dikk nikka. Two teams you can't criticize for not taking Peterson are Detroit and Cleveland.

In a draft where we traded back into the 1st round to get Brady Quinn, your problem is the Joe Thomas pick?

Well sir, you have to compare the bust at the LT position compared to top RB bust
I'm sure there are more RB's to pick from probably, and Trent Richardson isn't helping this argument any either.

Yeah you're right cause playing hurt ALL season, missing 2 games and finishing top 5 in rushing TDs is looking real bust worthy.
