I clearly remember your outburst when he was hired. I was puzzled too because as I recall, Jauron had a decent record in Chicago, or; am I wrong? It became clear that Levy hired him because he was a young, under control image of himself. Both of these men seriously believed that no position on the field was more important than cornerback and/or safety. Not QB, LT, Pass rushing DE.....nothing, and this was before the rule changes. These were brilliant men yet they knew less about football than an average high school coach. Unbelievable. Truly mind boggling how Mr. Wilson paid these men to destroy his team.

The #8 in a draft that was loaded with talent needs to be more than a legit starter, which he barely was. Whitner was an undersized safety with mediocre speed. I agree that the 2000 draft produced worse players for the Bills. Absolutely true but there were less good players to choose from. In fact, it was probably one of the worst draft classes ever. I think that the first QB chosen was Chad Pennington. In 2006, Levy passed on excellent players and turned down at least 2 offers to trade down, one of which included multiple picks. I heard him say this during a post draft interview and he was actually bragging about drafting Whitner.

The Levy/Jauron draft in 2006 set this team back 5 years. It was SO bad that most posters on this board knew how much it would hurt the team (although, a few actually defended it). They entered the draft with the #8 in rounds 1 & 2, and 2 top ten picks in round 3. 4 early picks in the first 3 rounds!!! The net result? DB Whitner (mediocre and cost 36 million in real cap dollars), McCargo (DL who completely sucked), and DB Ashton Youboty (just awful). Oh, and the draft was stacked with good players. Not painful enough? They grabbed another horrible DB, Ko Simpson in round 4. Levy and Jauron were two clowns, at the sub-basement level of Rich Kotite. PS: I don't care that they drafted Kyle Williams in the 5th in that draft. That was pure luck. Nobody else thought that he was any good. I would have been more impressed if they took him early.

As I was walkin' 'round Grosvenor Square Not a chill to the winter but a nip to the air From the other direction, she was calling my eye It could be an illusion, but I might as well try, might as well try She had rings on her fingers and bells on her shoes And I knew without askin' she was into the blues She wore scarlet begonias tucked into her curls I knew right away she was not like other girls, other girls

All the things I planned to do I only did half way, Tomorrow will be Sunday born of rainy Saturday. There's some satisfaction in the San Francisco rain, No matter what comes down the Mission always stays the same, come again. Walking along the in the Mission, in the rain.

Who knows, maybe he would still feel the same. Sad indeed. -

Either way, that is a top 10 screen name in the history of this board. -
As a 50 + year Alabama Fan, I can't see any possible way for Jedrick Willis to go at #4. He is a good blocker but not a top 5 pick imo. He jumps quite a bit and sometimes at crucial times. He seems like a smart kid when he talks, perhaps he has concentration problems. I wouldn't be terribly surprised if he was there when the Bills pick at 22. We are not looking at Orlando Pace here. Jmo.
