Worst First Round Picks For Every Team


Mr. Scot

Lots of misery on that page :lol:

Kinda surprised they list Vernon Gholston as the Jets pick. I'd have thought taking Kyle Brady over Warren Sapp or Blair Thomas over Emmitt Smith would have been bigger disasters.

Some obvious names on there, of course (David Carr, JaMarcus Russell, David Klingler) and some teams with plenty to choose from (the Browns are notable) plus a few guys who passed through Charlotte on their way (Carr, Rod Gardner).

I see your Gholston and Brady and raise you Dewayne Jamar Robertson.

They gave up two 1sts to move up and take him. Meet original Dontari Poe

Granted, there's a lot to choose from.

Jets draft history is like a collection of train wrecks.

Which, of course, brings up this...

    • if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying 
    • So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
