HOLY CRAP! We drafted who???

Name a time when you were totally wrong, when we drafted a player that just pissed you off at the time because you thought the player sucked or was not a need player, only to discover how wrong you were later.

I will be man enough to admit that I was PISSED when we drafted Jon Beason. Morgan was the man in the middle and I thought Beason was a second rounder. I think we had the 14th pick, that year, but traded it to NYJ.

I was also pissed when we drafted Ryan Kalil. I think Hartwig was the center and I thought the second round was too high for a Center.

I thought drafting Clausen instead of a receiver was a horrible move. Also, Armanti would've dropped to AT LEAST the 5th round. Drafting him that high was stupid.

And I will be honest, I HATED the J-Stew pick. Everyone thought he would be the new starter with Foster gone, but I was a VERY strong believer in Williams before he even started.

I hated the Clausen pick.

I remember being confused about Stewart.

I remember hating the Sherrod martin pick because it said he was a safety on the TV. I wanted to draft Duke Robinson:eek:

Jon Beason was alright with me I remember not liking some scouting report said he thought he was better than he was.

I remember i was steaming mad in the 6th round of this years draft when we took pugh and gettis , while steve smith 2.0 ( looks wise muscular frame and even same basic face look ) Kyle williams was still there and low and behold he went 4 picks later to San Fran ..

Gettis proved me wrong .. pugh needs another year before we'll know, but the potential seems to be there ..

Another one was more of i was pissed at the luck of the draw.. 07 draft 2nd round Minnesota was picking ..mel kiper was talking all about dwayne jarrett and how he'd go there .. and i was like hell yes now WE can get Sidney Rice!! .. then hell broke lose , sidney was drafted and we drafted jarrett the very next pick.. and .. well you know how that turned out

- Kerry Collins over Steve McNair

- Tim Biakabutuka over Eddie George

- Jason Peter over Vonnie Holliday

- Chuck Wylie and Mitch Marrow over Leonard Little

- DeShaun Foster over Clinton Portis

Oh, you said times I was wrong (doh).

Not trying to brag, but I can't think of any draft picks I absolutely hated that wound up winning me over.

    • Hey, I was against drafting him back when, but you can't go back and undo it. So... you move on and hope there really is something developing there. Someone with more knowledge of the situation (whose job relies on it) seems to have more than hope than we do. So... once again, we trod into the coming season with Bryce and a lot of expectations. Like I said, the extension wasn't offered for past performance, it's a hedge against something great happening. If something mediocre happens, it also gives us something tradeable. If something bad happens, then we aren't on the hook for much more and we wade back into the rookie pool.
    • Upon further review, you are correct.  I was thinking they were Hurney guys.  
    • Yea he offered and was told the number wouldn't be high enough. Jeremy keeps paying the bill. Maybe he makes money off the site or maybe he's still attached
