Oh we could mention players like Williamson and Underwood as well.. or the draft card debacle.. two years in a row.. or well I am sure with some thought I could add more.

The Vikings have had there draft day blunders.. I think I shall ponder that thought on the way home.. :evil grin:

While we're at it 93z, I got to admit, the Green Bay Packers usually only draft what is fondly known by you guys as "Packer People". You know, high moral character, Church goin', all around nice guys.

The year is 1974 and in the late rounds of the NFL draft the Green Bay Packers draft a WR out of Portland State.............one Randall Woodfield. :shock:

And I will raise you Onterrio "The Whizzinator " Smith.. the steal of the 2003 draft. ;)

On Woodfield.. at least the Packers had the intelligence to cut him... albeit it took "several" indecent exposure incidents.

Dang guys, the Herschel Walker fiasco. That hurts....that really hurts.

By the way if any of you know the whereabouts of one Mike Lynn, master-mind behind the Walker debacle, let me know.
I would still like to de-nut him, hang him, boil him in oil, then have him drawn and quartered.

Deion Sanders coined it as the Herschel Walker shibacle. You know, when shit and debacle collide.

I will call your raise, and raise you one Jamal Reynolds............pride of the Packers 2001 1st round (10th overall) draft pick! :thumbright:
(taken before Todd Heap, Drew Brees, Reggie Wayne )

Out of Florida State University, Jamal Reynolds had proclaimed himself "the greatest defensive end the world has ever seen, period." In his senior year, Reynolds won the Lombardi Award and was a finalist for the College Defensive Player of the Year Award. He recorded 12 sacks and 58 tackles during that season.

The Packers were so enamored of him, they traded their first round pick (#17) and QB Matt Hasselbeck to the Seattle Seahawks for the chance to take Reynolds. Jamal Reynolds was Ron Wolf's last first-round draft pick with the Packers, leaving a nasty blemish on Wolf's stellar reputation as the Packers' GM.

After only 3 seasons with the Packers and recording only 14 tackles , Green Bay attempted to trade Reynolds to the Indianapolis Colts, but he failed the physical and the Packers released him 10 days later. The following season, Cleveland picked him up, but he was cut before the season started.

That's exactly what we tried to do, but you can't force a player to stay on your PS. The Bills offered him a roster spot and playing time, obviously he took it.

I kick it again with the 2005 draft for the Vikings.. set with 2 first round picks they select... Williamson and James.. both gave the Vikes 2 career starts... :lol:

Then throw in the waste at 3rd and 4th picks.. it has the makeup of one of the worst draft classes ever.


Round	Pick	Name        	Pos           	Starts	CG
1	7	Troy Williamson  WR   	        1       	49
1	18	Erasmus James 	DE             	1       	28
2	49	Marcus Johnson 	G              	1       	53
3	80	Dustin Fox   	DB                    0        	12
4	112	Ciatrick Fason 	RB                    0       	18

I mean Williamson couldn't a damn thing... leading some to believe he was blind. But the boy sure could run... was Al running your 05' draft? ;)

Mucky Tundra (30-Jan) : Now that's a thought, maybe they're looking at the college ranks? Maybe not head coaches but DC/assistant DCs with league experience?

beast (30-Jan) : College Coaches wouldn't want that publicly, as it would hurt recruiting and they might not get the job.

beast (30-Jan) : I thought they were supposed to publicly announce them, at least the NFL ones. Hafley was from college, so I believe different rules.

Mucky Tundra (30-Jan) : Who knows who they're interviewing? I mean, nobody knew about Hafley and then out of nowhere he was hired

beast (30-Jan) : I wonder what's taking so long with hiring a DL coach, 2 of the 3 known to interview have already been hired elsewhere.

buckeyepackfan (26-Jan) : I forgot, they corrected the call a week later. Lol btw HAPPY BIRTHDAY dhazer!

buckeyepackfan (26-Jan) : That brings up the question, why wasn't Nixon down by contact? I think that was the point Kanata was making.

packerfanoutwest (26-Jan) : well, he was

beast (26-Jan) : Eagles sure get a lot of fumbles on kickoffs

packerfanoutwest (26-Jan) : As of today, Cowboys have longest NFC Championship drought,

beast (26-Jan) : Someone pointed out, with Raiders hiring Carroll, the division games between Carroll and Jim Harbaugh are back on (who can whine more games)

beast (26-Jan) : I'm confused, Pete Carroll and Brian Schottenheimer? When Todd Monken, Joe Brady, Kellen Moore, Kliff Kingsbury and Zac Robinson are availab

Zero2Cool (25-Jan) : Any reason I'm catching a shot here about my intelligence?

Martha Careful (25-Jan) : thank you Mucky for sticking up for me

Martha Careful (25-Jan) : some of those people are smarter than you zero. However Pete Carroll is not

Mucky Tundra (24-Jan) : Rude!

beast (24-Jan) : Martha? 😋

Zero2Cool (24-Jan) : Raiders hired someone from the elderly home.

dfosterf (24-Jan) : I'm going with a combination of the two.

beast (24-Jan) : Either the Cowboys have no idea what they're doing, or they're targeting their former OC, currently the Eagles OC

Zero2Cool (23-Jan) : Fake news. Cowboys say no

Zero2Cool (23-Jan) : Mystery candidate in the Cowboys head coaching search believed to be Packers ST Coordinator Rich Bisaccia.

beast (23-Jan) : Also why do both NYC teams have absolutely horrible OL for over a decade?

beast (23-Jan) : I wonder why the Jets always hire defensive coaches to be head coach

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Still HC positions available out there. I wonder if Hafley pops up for one

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Trent Baalke is out as the Jaguars GM.

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Jeff Hafley would have been a better choice, fortunately they don't know that. Someone will figure that out next off season

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Aaron Glenn Planning To Take Jets HC Job
