That 2002 draft was :scusthov:

I thought Ashley Lelie would ball. I use to kill in Madden when I was a kid with him and Tyrone Calico at WRs

Anyone that Jacksonville drafted since 2010 not named Blackmon. They have an awful scouting department and draft regime.

On the topic of Bradford - I don't think he gets a fair shake. He's never had the proper tools outside of his rookie year and now he's saddled with Schottenheimer and Jeff Fisher; two of the most trash coaches at their respective positions.

and Cecil Shorts but yes for the most part.....we've had historically bad drafts. We had a pretty solid draft this past year tho :yeshrug:

Ernie Sims, Jason Allen, Tye Hill, Bobby Carpenter, John Mccargo,

Jamaal Anderson, Ted Ginn, Adam Carriker, Justin Harrell, Jarvis Moss, Brady Quinn, Buster Davis

Derrick Harvey, Keith Rivers, Lawrence Jackson, Phillip Merling, Delvin Thomas,

Jason Smith, Aaron Maybin, Larry English, Peria Jerry, Donald Brown,

A lot of these players never had really high expectations to warrant being called true bust but a lot of these dudes did turn out to be trash :scusthov:

levi brown

drafted in top 5, released by the worst pass blocking line in the league...twice


I remember watching that draft.Mel Kiper said the Cardinal scouts had him rated equal to Joe Thomas..and if they had the number #1 pick they would've considered taking him over Thomas because they believed Levi was a better mauler/run blocker.

No wonder they have the wost offensive line in all of football:heh:


Not only that, but they passed on Adrian Peterson.Just Imagine a offense with Kurt Warner at QB...a prime Anquan Boldin and Larry Fitzgerald at wideout, and Adrian Peterson running the ball:lawd:.

The Cardinals actually had a decent/respectable offensive line that year.That was the year they almost beat the Steelers in the Superbowl.

They probably would've won it if they had AP running the ball

Picks 2-6 from the 2010 draft have made the Pro Bowl. Pick #7 is arguably a top 5 shutdown corner :mjpls:



Pick #120 is arguably the best DT in the league.
