2006 - I think DeAngelo Williams would have been taken higher than they have him listed if they knew how good he'd be, although I can understand him being a mid-round pick because he's a running back.

2007 - Jon Beason being listed as #15 overall is fuging laughable. He would be a top 10 pick at the latest. Charles Johnson jumped 64 spots to #19 overall which is about where I'd put him.

2008 - This one really is a joke. They have Stewart as the 7th RB taken, and put PEYTON HILLIS before him. I can understand the Otah drop because of his injury concerns(he dropped 10 spots), but putting Hillis, and even Forte before Stewart is a fuging joke lol.

Peyton Hillis is a beast.

That he is. I like Hills, but Stewart crushes him in every way imaginable. His stats in 2009 were much better than Hillis' in 2010. Hillis has had one good season while Stewart has had three.

the issue isn't really who is put ahead of him. it's him falling fifteen spots.

what the hell is that about?

the list is more or less based on what they can remember right off the top of their heads and not on a players body of work as a whole.

Off the top of my head Darrell Revis was not drafted 32nd and Kentwan Balmer was not drafted by the Seahawks.

And Pierre Garcon as the 9th best player in the 2008 draft is one of the funnier things I have read in a long time as is the rest of the list. Riley you should just write sort of heartwarming puff pieces because your knowledge of actual football is not very good any more.

    • I would write “give remmers tight end help” on a yellow sticky note and stuck it in shulas playbook the night before superbowl 50. 
    • And don’t worry about Bryce he will be great… Peyton Manning had a horrible rookie year too 😂
    • Nothing wrong with it at all until you start telling others they are bad fans or not fans. But you are the good fan because you never say negative stuff about the team.    I did many years of that type of uninformed fanning because there really was no info and coverage like there is with the internet.    I mean, I used to go to the store and get Street and Smith’s annual football issue. That was about the extent of what you could get if you didn’t live in a big city with sportswriters covering and reporting.  There was no video to look at or replay the games and if you didn’t live in the market you could only rarely see your football team play.    TI have fanned since being a kid in the early 1960s, and as late as 1995 - ‘97 I lived in Atlanta and good luck getting more than 3 or 4 games a year on TV. No radio either. No print coverage outside of an AP recap and box unless they played Atlanta.  People today that have always had the network connection don’t know.    I wasn’t very educated about the Panthers until I finally got internet.
