Wouldn't it be nice if we could go back in time and fix things. :lol: I think drafting Ted Ginn over Patrick Willis was the dumbest mistake we've ever made. We could have had the best LB in football, but instread we have a guy who cannot catch the ball and not likely to get any better. Can any of you think of a bigger mistake on draft day than what we did in 2007? :pity:

Don't foregt Revis he was picked at 14!

Roman....
The past decade we regularly made the "worst draft mistakes ever" every single year!
Ginn was a mistake but we've had worse over the past 10 years.
Don't think I need to name all the boneheaded Wanny drafts do I?
It's all past history now.
Just have to try and forget and hope this crew does much better in our drafts.
So far they have although the Pat White pick really took me back to the Wanny years and caused me some concern. -

Chew on this:
Ronnie Brown over Demarcus Ware. Yeah I said it. Ronnie is a beast but can't stay healthy, and gives us 800 yards on average, a year on the ground. 6 tds/year is decent. But at #2, stats wise,he's been a disappointment. We can play this game with every position really.
And it isn't even the worse. We could have had Drew Brees. -
-
Eddie Moore over Boldin is worse. Jason Allen over a slew of other players is probably worse as well. You can't have a perfect draft every year, so what's the point of this thread?

Hey how about we go buy some Patrick Willis jerseys, poke little nails and staples through the fabric's meshwork and camp out in front of the Davie NSU Headquarters whipping ourselves with them?
-
How about these:
Fletcher over Brees
Carey over Wilfork
Brown over Ware and Merriman
J Allen over D Ryan
Ginn over Willis and Revis
Long over Gholston
and
Davis over H Nicks -

the point is, there is no point.....speculation and conjecture = pointless in every sense of the word and exercise. We have made it back to the SB and to AFC Championship games all since our last SB victory.
A lot goes into what it takes to win our next SB. Drafting and getting value from the draft is a piece of the puzzle, but its not the end all or be all....no more than FA, trades, or play calling...its about execution in many facets. -

What We need is that explosive dominate WR underneath like Irvin was. -
Jake Long is one of the best, if not the best, young LT in the NFL.
Vontae Davis was just drafted last year and had 3 INTs.
You can't be serious with the Long & Gholston one. It's not even close. -
Ginn on the other hand is frustrating no doubt! The drops we can fix, but what I struggle with is the falling down and going out of bounds. 1.4 yac this year sucks and pisses me off! He never even tried to break open a play, it was catch and go down, drop, or get out of bounds! -
Basically, they have not drafted well in some time. They have remained a winning team due to Brady and some of the FA moves they have made. -
yes he should... feel better? :lol: -
1. your smoking crack if you think Carey is one of the best RT's in the NFL
2. Long v Gholston was a joke... especially since the Jets drafted him.
3. I dont have a problem with the Davis pick. I mean I would have picked Nicks but then again I had a man crush on him. -

1st Round (22nd Overall)
2nd Round (Jaguars 44th Overall)
2nd Round (Titans 47th Overall)
2nd Round (53rd Overall)
Like I said, some organizations know how to draft and some don't. -
OR
We could go through every draft's 1st roudnrs and look at who we took and pick the best player in that draft that came after and find the same thing year after year. On the positive side, we got Marino late in the draft. Maybe we're repaying the Karma from that?:wink2: -
-
Ya'll know you were screaming at the TV when we took Ginn's family over Brady Quinn, not Patrick Willis.
Vaark, GISH, bakedmatt and 1 other person like this. -
Pats as the organization to show how great they are at drafting??????
-
Hands of those who wanted to draft Brady Quinn?

1982 loss to Redskins in superbowl 27-17
1984 loss to 49ers in superbowl 38-16 ( Marino arrives)
1985 loss to Patriots in AFC Championship 31-14 (6 turnovers)
1992 loss to Buffalo in AFC Championship 29-10
that's all folks

really not all that great:unsure: -

With our current FO, that has nothing to do with the Ginn draft, we will get back as well. :hi5: -
-
Hard to disagree with the bigdog...........:up:
It is odd though looking at it all those years with the great Marino and all we got to brag about was 1 superbowl appearance and 2 AFC games that we lost in.:cry:BigDogsHunt likes this. -
