Passing on Randy Moss was something EVERY (with the exception of the Vikings) team was prepared to do or did. I've grown weary of people saying so and so passed on Randy Moss so he is a terrible G.M....everyone did it.
32 teams...including the Patriots...passed on Tom Brady...at least 5 times.
"He could have gotten more then two firsts and a 4th for Ricky". Well, he got a 2nd and 2 firsts for Ricky. WHO THE HELL WOULD HAVE GIVEN HIM MORE? The guy ROBBED us. The 1st and 2nd was enough...getting the conditional pick (for very achievable statistics) was the kicker.
I'm not a Meuller fan but these are poor examples to disect his draft history.
The second 1st we gave up for Ricky was totally dependent on him achieving something like 1500 yards. We got our reward for that pick. It's too bad the rest of the team couldn't play up to his ability that season.
