2009 draft looks like one of the worst ever especially considering the 1st, 3rd, and 6th we gave up to get Roy.

A decade from now, that draft will stick out just as bad as the one in 1995. In a way it is creepy, like we decided to do it all over again just to see if it could possibly work.

You never, ever, ever approach a draft thinking like a loser and that the best you can get is backups or special teams role players. Why? Becuase those players are told they will never be better and 9 times out of 10 they will never aspire to be better.

I'm glad Bright is gone, just for the fact that people can no longer pin their hopes on him anymore.

I really know nothing about this player. People actually pinned hopes on him? Really? Some bottom dweller on the roster who'se claim to fame is probably lifting a piece of metal off of someone when the practice bubble collapsed?

Our top two picks, Jason Williams and Robert Brewster, didnt make 3 seasons with us. 12 draft picks, 5 have been cut, 1 has never been healthy. Grade F at the time for that draft, now they get a Z.

Cue dbair and other Jerry apologists now....

Yep, looking like a big bunch of stink...ranks up there with 95, 00 and 01 for sure

We did. Jerry hired Wade thinking he could hire anyone to manage his talented roster. It didn't work...again.

John Phillips isn't going anywhere's.

In fact He'll eventually take Martellus Bennet's spot on the roster.

~Stern look over at Laz~


I imagine he will because eventually, Bennett will be starting for some other team. You just cannot get over the fact that Bennett is supremely better than Phillips. It's ridiculous.
