Hindsight is 20/20.
Everyone I know was thrilled we took Big Mike! Dwight Freeney is the only player I can say "DAMNIT" about! But who knew?!?!Comment

That was a very good draft for defense.
As for Williams....Who knew?
That was our biggest need and most everyone felt we made the right pick.
Freeney is the only one that makes me cringe because we needed DE help just as bad.
Just another example of Buffalo's bad luck.Comment

There are quite a few of them I would still have passed on, McKinney being one of them.

The guy just isn't mean enough to be an NFL player. That was pretty apparent from the beginning!
He's a wuss!

Ed Reed sucks...
I am glad we got Pussyfoot.I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?"
"Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet.
You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
It was all true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.

Re: FLASHBACK: Check out all the players we passed up to draft Pussyfoot Williams!
that was the only other one that the Bills might have taken. With the #4 pick of the draft, either way it was going to be a very expensive contract. It just turned out to be bad for Buffalo. If only the Bills lost to Carolina in the season, then they could have gotten Julius Peppers.Originally posted by Gunzlingr

Again, we were going to draft a OT anyway, building the team around Drew at the time.

williams still has a chance to be a very good tackle for us, although he gets hurt too damn much.
the thing about that draft is more than half of it was busts.
mckinny is worse than williams, levi jones was a reach at 10th overall, but is decent (still not as talanted as williams)
carr harrington jammer sims and mckinny are all between busts to hoping to be average.
a trade down and grabbing freeney and reed would have made us fricken huge, although as said above losing to carolina and grabbing peppers would have been enough for me.Comment

Im so glad we passed on Freeny, Roy Williams, Jeremy Shockey, Kendell Simmons, and Ed Reed. All were postions we needed at the time.
