Drafting DeMarcus Ware over Junior Seau was one of the better decisions ever made.

Especially since Seau had already been in the league for 16 years, although at that point I'm pretty sure Miami would have let us have him for our first first-rounder.

Got your Chargers mixed up

Yeah wrong guy. Did junior last long in the NFL.

Umm, yeah……closer to two decades and is in the HoF

RIP Junior Seau. Donated his brain to science for the sake of studying CTE.

I stopped paying attention to the rest of the NFL around 2002. I just watch the Cowboys now.

Junior was drafted in 1990, Ware and Merriman were drafted in 2005. If my math is correct, that's 15 years difference, not 16. Just saying.

You're in your 20's I'm guessing?

Seau is one of the all-time greats. Yes, he played a season or 15+.

I only watch the Cowboys. I watch non of the highlights, non of the talk shows and non of the pre-game shows. Only the Cowboys. Screw ESPN, FOX, ABC, and the rest of the NFL.

I'm a Cowboys fan. Not a NFL fan. I've been that way for almost two decades now.

Do you mean Shawne Merriman?

Yeah him too?

 

[Runwildboys]

Wow, some people have too much time on their hands to look up stuff like this.

 

[jazzcat22]

Do you mean Shawne Merriman?

Yes, this was my first thought, but could not recall the name. I just new it was not Seau.
That draft debate went on for years on here, and DWare proved to be the better selection.

You don't remember correctly at all.
Junior was drafted in 1989. Same year as Troy

His depression/suicide was from steroids, but nobody wants to go there. The whole concussion thing is a little bit of a scapegoat. Nobody wants to talk about the impact steroids has on people mentally.
