PromoTheRobot Posted February 3, 2010 Posted February 3, 2010 How could you even compare it to the 2000 Bills Draft. Look at these guys - outside of the 5th round, you can't get much better... simply unstoppable... Rd Sel # Player Position School 1 26 Erik Flowers DE Arizona State 2 58 Travares Tillman FS Georgia Tech 3 89 Corey Moore OLB Virginia Tech 4 121 Avion Black WR Tennessee State 5 156 Sammy Morris RB Texas Tech 6 194 Leif Larsen DT Texas-El Paso 7 233 Drew Haddad WR Buffalo 7 251 DaShon Polk LB Arizona And every one was a "fine young man." So said John Butler. PTR
Preston Ridlehuber Posted February 3, 2010 Posted February 3, 2010 Good thing Polian had the 'nads to stand up to the old man. Ballsy move since he was just promoted and had no track record at that point. PTR Actually, I don't believe that Wilson was a big Flutie supporter then either. As I recall, it was pretty much between Smith and Childress. The Flutie faction was a small, but very vocal minority.

Bob in STL Posted February 3, 2010 Posted February 3, 2010 1974 Pittsburg Steelers draft was maybe better?!? Round 1: Lynn Swann, USC Round 2: Jack Lambert, Kent State Round 4: John Stallworth, Alabama A&M Round 4: Jimmy Allen, UCLA Round 5: Mike Webster, Wisconsin 4 out of 5 first picks are in the Hall of Fame... i think that probably qualifies as the best draft for a team ever or maybe the 1986 San Farn 49ers draft: 2 39 Larry Roberts DE 06/02/1963 Alabama 3 56 Tom Rathman RB 10/07/1962 Nebraska 3 64 Tim McKyer DB 09/05/1963 Texas-Arlington 3 76 John Taylor WR 03/31/1962 Delaware State 4 96 Charles Haley DE 01/06/1964 James Madison 4 101 Steve Wallace OT 12/27/1964 Auburn 4 102 Kevin Fagan DE 04/25/1963 Miami 5 131 Pat Miller LB 06/24/1964 Florida 6 162 Don Griffin DB 03/17/1964 Middle Tennessee State they didn't even draft in the first round!!! Arguments? Steelers 1974 draft gets my vote. WOW!!
