And remember, Buffalo was only a hair behind the Jets last season anyway - take away the Losman fumble, and both teams were 8-8. They've been suffering from some seriously bad drafting. Looking over their first selections:
2008: Vernon Gholston. So far, a megabust, though Ryan could revive him
2007: Darrelle Revis is much better, I can't knock them here.
2006: D'Brickashaw Ferguson was a good choice at the time, but has struggled at times to adapt to the pro game.
2005: No first round pick, selected Mike Nugent first at #47. Off the team.
2004: Jonathan Vilma is off the team.
2003: DeWayne Robertson is long gone.
That's a lot of whiffs - and that '03-'05 chunk is where their real veteran stars should be coming from.
