1. What is a draft pick that you hated at the time and ended up being right?
2. Pick you loved and was right?
3. Pick you hated and was wrong?
4 Pick you loved and was wrong?

1. Escobar
2. Zeke
3. Ware
4. Claiborne

Interesting thread. It’s a little hard for me because whether I like a pick or not I still tend to take a wait and see approach knowing that players often turn out better or worse than they appear when drafted. Here are my choices though.

Hated and was right - Quincy Carter
Loved and was right - Dat Nguyen
Hated and was wrong - DeMarco Murray
Loved and was wrong - Danny Noonan

Loved it...and was right.
1985...5th Rd.
#34.
Herschel Walker.

1988....Michael Irvin.
I'll never forget that pick...Its who I wanted and I didnt think it would happen.
I remember when he said he was gonna put Danny White in the pro-bowl.

Bobby Carpenter is the first one that always comes to mind, but I'm sure there are others. The Cowboys have gotten better in drsftind, do those are rare these days.

Zeke

Dez (sorta wrong and right)

Claiborne is the first that comes to mind.

Roy Wi11iams, all the second round TEs after '03, the entire '09 class, Claiborne, Street, Hitchens, (zeke TBD)


Witten, ware, Tsmith, Dez, Lee, Murray, Harris, swaim, (Lewis, Awuzie)

(Zeke TBD)

Other than trading our second for Claiborne; I really liked what we did with our picks in 2012.




You didn't specify Cowboys so just a few of many many more:


Loved Ramsey and Diggs seems like way, way more than anyone else. I was pleading that we draft Telvin Smith in chat. Since Mark Sanchez, I've been right about every 1st and 2nd round QB outside of the top 5 picks in round one.

[rags747]

1- Greg Ellis over Randy Freaking Moss!
2-Aikman
3-Fredrick
4-Claiborne

Yep, I was totally flabbergasted when everyone passed on Moss and he fell to us, I was so psyched. And then to see us pass on Randy totally deflated me. Turned out to be one of the best receivers ever, would have looked so good with a star on his helmet.

 

[cowboyec]

1. Taco Charlton, Chaz Green, every pick in 2009
2. Ware, Bryant, Elliott, T. Smith
3. Jay Ratliff, Prescott (maybe?)

way too early on Taco.
