It’s amazing how many of these guys didn’t work out. I used to think the team didn’t develop talent enough, especially under Garrett, but those are some pretty bad picks.

Quincy Carter
QB Georgia A known drug user in college, the scouts went to sleep on him; a terrible waste of a pick and terrible state of unpreparedness for Aikman retiring to alone rely on this misfit to QB the Boys; a dark chapter in foolishness for the Boys' front office.

Definitely adds perspective

Then again, other than 2009, we didn't for sure know those drafts sucked on draft day.

not totally true...I knew it was terrible at the time. That said, the entire draft was pretty bad but ours was just mind blowingly awful.
Out of all three of those drafts mentioned, Jason Hatcher was the only guy who made anything of himself and we let him walk to the skins.

What’s your point other than to crap on the team? Every team in the NFL has similar list of busts.

I think it was a defence on this team actually. With people unhappy with the draft we had, I think he was trying to put it in perspective with what were awful drafts.
