All I said was Dilfer would've been a better draft pick than Alberts. Kiper was right about that. He was a league average starting QB (those aren't very good) for about 10 years, which is way more value than a bust LB that flamed out in 3 years.
LOL, you are giving Griggs way too much credit for saying his knowledge was limited. Hell, that orangatan would do a better job.

Draft grades are meaningless, but that is what those draft guru's do.

On a side note, think about this, if the Colts would have drafted Dilfer and he made the Colts an average team, we wouldn't have been able to draft Peyton fucking Manning. Dilfer was taken in 1994. Things actually worked out better for us not taking Dilfer. But to your point, yes Dilfer would have definitely been the better pick at the time. I thank God Tobin didn't take him.
