    So.....

    We only have a number two as our highest draft pick next year. Let's see...
    Reed - Bust
    Dennehy - Bust
    Kelsay - Little Flashes

    I wonder what loser we'll pick this year with our number two.

    Maybe there will be a new GM picking the #2.

        I wouldn't mind another Travis Henry or Aaron Schobel type.

        And don't give up on Reed and Kelsay so quickly.

        I guess if you were GM our starting lineup would be filled with rookies every year.

          Two out of about ten isn't a bad percentage. Still waiting on Kelsay, Reed, and Dennehy.

              Well Donahoe has hit on 2 out of 5 and counting so far, so that's even better. What's your point?

                btw, an arguement can be made that Riley, Rogers, Wiley and Price weren't super hits either...2nd rounders are very tough to gauge...

                  Take off your rose colored glasses, look at all of his drafts (Mike Williams comes to mind) and get back to me when you have a more legitimate one than mine.

                    you started with the second round picks...right now, TD is doing better then the Bills have historically with 2nd round picks...

                      I guess we have exhausted complaining about the present, and are almost finished complaining about the past. Next up- trashing the future.

                        Not impressed, I'd still take John Butler over his ass in a heartbeat...God rest his soul.

                          Butler did more harm is screwing up the salcap then TD has with bad drafts...

                            True, but at least he fielded winning teams for most of his career with the Bills. TD has given away our No 1 draft picks twice and more of his drafts overall than not have been for the most part been a bust or mediocre at best...especially the high draft pick he wasted on Mike Williams. The future of this team has been put back another couple of years because of his gambles, ego, and hardheadedness.
