Players you've wanted (now or past)

[DoctorChicken]

Aaron Donald

I really wanted us to draft Fletcher Cox in 2012. When were moving up, I was sure it was for him.

 

[OldSkool]

Trey Flowers

Chris Johnson was average in AZ, way past his prime. He had a couple good games but McFadden had more in the tank.

I don't really have a comment as far as "busts" go because I typically don't want the team to invest in aging players.

If I had to pick---maybe Demarco Murray? I wanted him back at the right price and he turned out to still be one of the better backs in the league with Tennessee.

Many around here did think he was used up.

Draft picks arent aging players. Like if you wanted Chris Johnson over Felix Jones in 2008.

I didn't say you were.

You said "CJ2K before he went to Arizona"

If you said CJ2K before Tennessee, I would've agreed with you.

I think he did fine in AZ minus a freak leg break.

SJAX!!! Thanks for the awesome trade down though while he was there for the taking. Julius Jones was wayyyy better. Ive never been more pissed off during a draft.

 

[Risen Star]

Carson Wentz.

Told ya so.

 

[kiheikiwi]

Yup the two biggest heartbreaks of recent times - S.Jackson (still can't believe that one) and had F.Cox but traded up for Mo. (and lost Wagner, who they admitted was their round 2 target).
Sometimes they outsmart themselves ....Good times.
These are the things I pray McClay stops Jerry from doing ever again !

I went on quite a rant about OG Brian Waters when the Chiefs released him and was told by the usual suspects that he was washed up and that Montreal Holland was a better option. And then when they did sign Waters two years, a Pro Bowl, and a Super Bowl appearance later, it was of course met with thunderous applause.

Seau and Moss, we could'a we should'a we didn't.

 

[Outlaw Heroes]

Seau and Moss, we could'a we should'a we didn't.

Wasn't Seau in Emmitt's draft year?

 

[J_Allen]

Randy Moss


What a mistake in taking Ellis.

[AsthmaField]

I pretty much went on and on about Aaron Donald. Even said we should have moved up about 5 spots to take him.

There have been others too but there have been misses as well.

 

[SilverStarCowboy]

Revis Island

 

[Arkyvarminter]

Really don't have one but when we drafted Claiborne they said we got a DB from LSU and I was hoping it was the Honey Badger.......

 

[HeavyBarrel]

Wanted Randy Moss......

 

[Tristan]

Wanted Irvin and Jimmy Johnson, was a yuuuge hurricanes fan as kid!

Randy Moss was the all time greatest want and subsequent soul crushing heart break! The causality of this one still make me feel kicked in the gut! Just wanted one year at least of Aikman throwing to moss and irvin, would've prolonged everones career imo and 2 more rings minimum! And would've never traded 2 firsts for Galloway

I admit I wanted big Mike Willams WR usc

Wanted Desean Jackson real bad to replace Terry Glenn, we passed on him 3 times, furious!

Wanted and got dez!

Wanted A Cramartie and S Holmes over Big bust carpenter

Wanted Steven Jackson instead of dumb trade down for Juice Jones and a future first (felix still jonesing jones)

Wanted Rg3 ouch!

Wanted Rocket Ismail over R maryland

 

[kilz]

I wanted Poe over Claiborne

I thought we traded up for Fletcher Cox. Would've been great.
