    Lots of big time busts there, like Manuel and Watkins.

    There were a few decent mid-level players taken during those years, like Kiko, Badham, Wood, Moats, and some that had success elsewhere, like Goodwin, and Gilmore, unfortunately, they were coached by idiots like Ryan, Gailey, and Jauron.

    At least Beane and McDermott seem to have a plan, even if half that plan is bringing in guys from Carolina.

    When I think of the money I blew on those teams I kinda want to be sick.

    It was 17 years of bad front offices and coaches.

    Still hated 2010. After Spiller it was down hill

    Ed Wang?

    sad note Kyle Calloway selected 7th round never played an NFL game. Bills cut him , waived by Ravens then signed with UFL team in 2011.

    at age 29. Jogging next to railroad tracks. Hit by train from behind. My lord.

    Actually, the next year I took Mahomes. Sorry, the database crash destroyed the thread, but I did. I still remember that night and my oldest son calling me and starting the conversation with "so how PO'd are you right now?" lol.

    It wasn't until the next day, listening to Andy Reid's PC and him talking about WHY they wanted Mahomes that I got PO'd.

    But then we got Josh the next year.

    Trading up for Watkins for two 1sts vs getting Mike Evans, OBJ, Aaron Donald, Khalil Mack, Zach Martin… Hell Devante Adams went #53. Lordy RB and DW smoked a big bowl the night prior.

    Yeah, that was a really dumb move. I wanted Donald.
