The Bengals are the only team that passed on Moss twice the year he was drafted.



Drafted Takeo Spikes and Brian Simmons instead. Went into 1998 with a WR corps consisting of David Dunn, Damon Gibson, James Hundon, Willie Jackson, Carl Pickens, Darnay Scott & Stepfret Williams.


Nevermind.....looking back I guess they didn't need Randy Moss with all that talent @ WR. :stopitslime:

Pickens and Scott was a decent combo. Spikes and Simmons were good additions too. :birdman:

The worst of all time

1980

The golden state warriors (draft day) trade the #3 pick AND robert parrish for the Celtics #1 and #13 pick. They in turn draft JOE BARRY CARROL. At 3, the celtics draft kevin Mchale.

In whole, the warriors traded robert parrish and Kevin mchale for joe barry carrol and rickey brown....3 years later, when the duo was winning their second nba title, carroll was playing in ITALY. Brown would join him a year later...

The Cleveland Clowns really hurt themselves when they came back.

Tim Couch
Gerrard Warren
Courtney Brown

Straight up handicapped them from the jump and they never recovered.

I remember when the Lions took a WR in the top ten picks like, 3 years in a row


I dont think any of them panned out either did they?



Minus Megatron recently, of course.
