    Default A McDaniels Recap

    So looking back on 2009 and 2010 drafts:

    1 12 Knowshon Moreno
    1 18 Robert Ayers
    2 37 Alphonso Smith
    2 48 Darcel McBath
    2 64 Richard Quinn
    4 114 David Bruton
    4 132 Seth Olsen Guard
    5 141 Kenny McKinley
    6 174 Tom Brandstater
    7 225 Blake Schlueter

    1a 22 Demaryius Thomas
    1b 25 Tim Tebow
    2 45 Zane Beadles
    3a 80 J.D. Walton
    3b 87 Eric Decker
    5 137 Perrish Cox
    6 183 Eric Olsen
    7a 225 Syd'Quan Thompson
    7b 232 Jammie Kirlew

    Four 1st rounders and four second rounders. Only one of those guys remains and only two total from that draft. Alphonso Smith for Earl Thomas.
    And please don't tell me we got Peyton as some grand design that the button head had while getting rid of Cutler/Marshall.

    Decent 2010 draft. Was hit and miss but produced an all-pro level player and a couple of solid starters. Pretty bad 09 draft in hindsight. Moreno and Ayers are both decent players, but not first round talents. Bruton is a great special teamer. Richard Quinn might be the worst draft pick ever though.

    Overall, not the best two drafts ever, but not the worst either. I'd give 2010 a B+ and the 2009 draft a D.

    Nothing can be done to change Mc?! *$face's wasted picks.

    Maybe start previewing the current Draft will ease the pain.

    I too hate Josh McDaniels.


    He did draft a couple good WRs though. Doesn't change the fact that he was gay.

    Rd. 3: Ryan Harris

    or

    Yea, but laughing at Shanny's draft classes arent near as fun, not too mention he did manage to win a couple of rings with the team.

    And went down hill with talent thereafter except for one year.

    How about we admit that Shanahan was not a Rhodes scholar when it came to drafting talent while being easy with Pats money for the free agent mistakes.

    Now we actually have separation of state so to speak between HC and GM. That is something to celebrate.

    Not many actual game starters in those drafts. You can Probably count them on your digits, hands and feet.

    Shanahan is a below average coach in the NFL. He couldn't do anything when the G.O.A.T#7 retired.

    1 playoff win in 13 years = overrated

    I would not quite say below average, as he did win a lot of games after Elway retired, but failed epically in the playoffs.

    Shanatan's '99 draft might be the single worst draft in the history of ever.

    The '99 and '09 draft shows why teams have to have an eye towards the future, they loaded up on draft picks in two of the waekest draft pools in decades.
