Bears have Bills to thank for getting Hester

[The Jokeman]

So we decided to trade down from the 26th spot in the 1st round in order to pick up extra picks. What was surprising was there were a number of teams who wanted to be trading partners with us. It turned out Buffalo had the best deal on the table, giving us their 2nd and 3rd round picks for our 26th slot in the first round. After the deal, we felt we had the right picks to be able to draft both Manning and Hester. We then decided to draft Manning with the first 2nd round pick and Hester with the 2nd.

they probably would have still passed on hester...we had mcgee and parrish as returners. both doing well. we were all about reaches...we probably still take mccargo without trade.

Hmm...didn't the 1998 draft pick trade for Rob Johnson end up with JAX drafting RB Fred Taylor?
