if its been posted I didnt see it but ill merge.

According to rotoworld:


NFL Network's Adam Shefter reports the Bills traded DL John McCargo to the Colts in exchange for a fourth-round draft pick Tuesday.

The Bills took a lot of criticism when they traded up in the first round to draft McCargo back in 2006. It turns out the criticism was warranted as McCargo has been alternately injured, unimpressive, and overweight in Buffalo. He's still young, though, and he'll add much-needed size along the Colts' defensive line.

A 4th round pick for a 3rd year player who was a 4th stringer and was a healthy scratch week 1. I'll take that anyday.

That's unfortunate...I was really hoping he would come around and live up to his first round status. Good luck in Indy, John.

Waste of a pick for us... But I wish him best at Indy. Maybe he'll not be lazy anymore, and actually live up to the 1st round pick we wasted on him.

I have to say I am pleased that we managed to get a 4th for him, but I think if given the opportunity to play consistently he will be pretty good for the Colts. I wish him the best of luck.

Yeah, Marv shouldn't get blasted at all for this pick.

Yeah, he was a bust like half of the first round picks.

Overall, it looks like Marv presided over two above average drafts, with McCargo the notable bust.

He wasn't a waste of a pick at all..


He was a waste of TWO first day picks. That's a hell of a opportunity cost. I hope we stop trading up.

Does anyone kknow if the 4th is conditional that could possibly go to a 3rd if he pulls his head out of his ass?

At camp this summer, he always seem winded and had to take a knee after drills. The coaches were riding him hard, always screaming his name.

After his foot injury last year, he didn't seem to ever get back into shape. Then shows up for Fisher camp extremely out of shape. The beginning of the end.

LOL! Have you watched the last two drafts? Everybody wants to trade up to the first round again for their pick that gives them woodies.

Having said that, getting Poz in the 1st wouldn't have been so bad if it had come to that last year. However, alot of people wanted some very small WR's that have done nothing with their teams up to this point.

I just hope the McCargo trade has a performance clause in it somewhere that benefits us.

at least we got something positive for him unlike the 1st rounder we wasted on guys like Williams, Rob (trade), and JP... Flowers was a 1st rounder too right?
