Great example.
Washington was a first round pick by San Francisco and did not live up to expectations. I believe he was injured most of the time in SF.
Picked up by Denver as a free agent and began to contribute as a player.
Then followed Wade Phillips to Buffalo.
I know you are looking for first rounders, but I was wondering if Steve Christie would qualify?
He was with Tampa Bay, they chose not keep him and he became a Plan B free agent.
If Big Ted qualifies, then Lee Evans will after he has a Pro Bowl season this year!!
Yeah, yeah, I want to move on, but I'm sick of the Bills front office getting schooled by an organization that knows what the hell it is doing. -
CAN I GET AN ALLELUIA!!!
I'll give you a Hallelujah!!! They drafted the best football PLAYER and didn't outsmart themselves by choosing the player that projects best into their "System."

NFL.com has all the pre-season games on-line for just $20.

Is that a real question to the poster who put that up? I mean come on, it has a fairly obvious answer. The Cincy game was an abnormal game greatly helped to make possible by the fact that Cincy literally lost half of their starting secondary mid game in which prior to that Fitz was playing atrocious. The point the other poster was trying to make, was that outside of that game, he was pretty unimpressive in the majority of the rest of his games.
Like I said before, in the 9 games following the Balt game which caused everyone to get on his band wagon, he completed just 56% of his passes, 12 TD's, with 16 turnovers, and a QB rating of 70...and that is including the Cincy game.
I mean how often are you banking on our opponent losing half their starting secondary for a game?
You're right, Fitzpatrick sucks. We should have taken one of the five future pro bowl qb's that we could have had in the draft.

I'd take Bowers with the bum knee than any part of Maybin.
I'd take Bowers bum knee detached from his body running around on the field by itself over Maybin.

Well I was thinking about starting a thread before either of you started a thread. So there!!! And Dr. Phil isn't even a real doctor!!
-
I don't know who he has the Bills taking, a subscription is required. Probably a "franchise(killing)quarterback."
-
I mean WOW!! We can laugh about it NOW!!!

Unfortunately, I think we may take a so-called "franchise quarterback" with our pick because of Ralph(there are very few f'ing "franchise quarterbacks" in the whole NFL, yet we are to believe that there are several in one draft!!!
) 1. Ralph said after the season that finding a qb was a priority.
2. Ralph is in the war room during the draft and involved in the decision making process.
3. If you were Nix or Chan, would you want to tell your boss that Newton or Gabbert isn't worth it and chance them succeeding with another team?

List loses all credibility when it claims TWO wide receivers will become "one of the premier players at his position" as a rookie. Rookie WR's rarely are that great their first year.
-
Maybe he should start listening to mock drafts because they have done a hell of a lot better job at picking talent than the bills staff has.
+1 Ralph should fire his entire scouting staff and subscribe to profootballweekly. I'd even take Kiper's picks over these clowns.
-
I like Andrew Luck, but am I the only one that thinks the whole package of Luck and especially the thought of Harbaugh coaching in the NFL are overhyped?
I agree. I'm sick of the fawning over Luck. He's looked very average.
-
Worst teams in league blew a first round pick on a qb who was a bust. I'll say it again and again.
-
It felt like a pre-season game.
It felt like a tennis match was scheduled when a football game broke out.
-
I've watched Luck and I have to disagree with all the hype. He doesn't have any zip on his passes or great accuracy. He just seems to loft his deep ball to a wide open receiver deep which is frequent or dump it in the flat. When he's pressured, he makes bad decisions which could easily be int's. I think he's great when he has to run and he seems to have confidence of a leader, but other than that I just don't see it.
Somebody tell me where I'm wrong.

Scouts said Maybin was a 3-4 year project (which in itself makes it a horrible first round pick for which my remote control paid the ultimate price). So, why should we expect more than what we've seen? He's one year and six games into his career and people want to cut him. He's struggling, but why is this a surprise? He still has another two to three years to be "NFL ready." Just saying...
-
so the Director of College Scouting and the National Scout had nothing to do with the 1st pick
It was all Dick's fault
Sorry - not buying the Bills spin on all of the bad picks
Dick liked him because he was the DE that looked the most like a CB.
-
Why did he leave for Florida?
Because he was pushed out in Miami.
That's right, the guy we selected to be our defensive coordinator could not hold on to the job of INSIDE linebacker's coach of the Dolphins.
You must be a racist. Affirmative action is necessary to correct the mistakes of the past.
-
How about Ralph and his Monet collection for Bob Kraft!!!! Now that'll be a trade. Do it Nix!!!!

You had me until you said "Here me out".
I had to continue reading after "Quite frankly." People on this board usually hold things back.

Marshawn Lynch was not in Buddy's plans and it seemed obvious when Spiller was drafted. The peek time to trade a player is after regular season injuries. So why is Marshawn on his way to Seattle. The Coaches made their choice and the Bills are not interested in new deals for undependable players.
How will the players react? The players will regroup,back Fred Jackson and C.J.Spiller and move on. The most difficult trades involve team leadership and the Bills simply removed a virus.Lynch wanted out,he wants that big next deal and the Bills were costing him money. Marshawn Lynch begged for this trade and that effects the locker room!
Was it a fair deal? I would say Buffalo did better then expected. Problem players generally repeat and the Seahawks took a large gamble and there is a chance they will lose.
GO BILLS
DIE HARD 1967
If Lynch wasn't in Buddy's plans, than Buddy should have changed his plans because Lynch has played harder and better than any other player on the roster. By the time this team contends, Fred Jackson will be a senior citizen in football terms and Spiller isn't the between the tackles grind-em kind of back that Lynch can be.
The one thing you say that makes sense is the money part of it. Jackson is signed to a modest contract and won't complain. Marshawn would have wanted a new contract. We all know Ralph only pays big money to mediocre players that he has an inexplicable fondness for. This was all about Ralph's back pocket.

The most frustrating thing is their moves have been bad moves and not just moves that turned out bad. Every one of the following moves were awful the moment they were made:
using a mid-first round pick for McGahee,
trading back into the first for lightly regarded Losman,
letting Pat Williams go,
drafting Whitner at #8,
trading up for McCargo,
drafting Maybin #11 over Orakpo,
Kelsay's first extension,
Kelsay's second extension,
consistently overpaying underperforming FA's
and on and on.

Only issue I have with Luck is arm strength and his ability to throw down the field with accuracy
Those are critical abilities for an NFL qb. I'm watching the game now and he's staring down his receivers, throwing up ducks. If Oregon's db's could catch he'd have at least three int's. He's no savior.
-
remember how outraged you were when buffalo didn't pick him up. well apparently you were wrong about how great he was. he just got benched in favor of bruce gradkowski
Thanks for the info, Davey. I, as all the other "Jason Campbell lovers" on this board, was just pleasuring myself to old Redskins videos. Now, I'll have to dig out my Tyler Thigpen videos.
Jasper as ILB??
