Ummm, didn't I already answer this one........I must be real tired!!!!
Oh, this one has the poll.

Well, on the other one I said Jamar Fletcher and Eddie Moore!
 
Did you make a new one... could of sworn I said "the real deal" Yatil.

yeah the first it wouldnt let me do the poll time was more than 5 mins so i made it and well sorry about the numbers inmy post allmessed up i coppied and pasted it froma site and tured out like crap! hopefully its fun trying to think of stuff outside the fa market!
 
While I agree that Yatil was a bust, I didn't vote for him because it wasn't his fault. I mean, assuming his knees were healthy and he got back into the groove, he could probably still play very well. Fletcher is the biggest bust because he lacks the skill to play in the NFL.

Well said cause I said something very similar to this previously.:D
 
let us not forget that we had the opportunity to take randy moss the year that john avery was selected - i believe moss was selected two spots after our original pick (we traded down with green bay). what a whiff.

Yep Jimmy Johnson took Larry Shannon Wr, and now Shannon is nowhere to be found.

yup so true and the whole draft i was praying for him but they didnt want him b/c of the speculation on drugs and basketball. and during the draft they were talking about the risk of the one and only dan marino! who got passed up but you know the story i dont need to explain it!:dolphins:
 
Jamar Fletcher, no doubt. Yatil Green could be also but he's a VERY bad luck history for our team and himself.

while i agree 100% i have to beg to differ. he could be a legend but he got hurt and getting hurt is a bust especially with his potential. im not arguing with you just explaining my motive on picking yatil. its like there is a curse for us to pick miami college wr's. randal hill was from miami too. anybody remember his nickname the thrill b/c of his 4.3 speed? and to throw sammie smith in the equation from florida st. it seems like we have a curse on all in state college first rounders we pick huh?:shakeno: and hill did catch some sweet passes from dan but just not enough!
 
cant be Jamar Fletcher, he just wasnt the right pick for that spot. he wasnt a first round talent, if we hadnt taken him he probably wouldnt have been selected in the first round. its not his fault where he was picked. however... Yatil Green was touted as a top notch WR who was going to be a target for Marino for years yada yada yada, well, i dont think he ever saw the field, and if he did, it obviously wasnt memorable, because i dont remember it.
