duey Posted November 28, 2004 Posted November 28, 2004 I was sitting on the can looking at this years Sporting News Pro Football guide, and I came across this gem. Take a look at the results of the last six top draft picks for the Fish: 1999 - 1st rounder traded to SF to trade-down 2000 - 1st rounder traded to Carolina in 1998 trade-up 2001 - Jamar Fletcher (CB), traded to SD after three disappointing seasons 2002 - 1st rounder traded to NO as part of Ricky Williams deal 2003 - 1st rounder traded to NO as part of Ricky Williams deal 2004 - Vernon Carey (G/T) Is it any wonder that this team is completely depleted of quality depth at so many positions?!?!? What an unbelievable draft record. As a comparision, the Bills are as follows: 1999 - Antoine Winfield (good return on pick, though he is no longer here) 2000 - Erik Flowers :I starred in Brokeback Mountain: 2001 - Nate Clements (good return on pick) 2002 - Mike Williams (I think he'll work out) 2003 - Willis ( ) 2004 - Lee Evans and JP With the exception of Flowers ( :I starred in Brokeback Mountain: ), I'm thinking we're not looking too bad here. Probably better than a lot of other teams.
