NFL Draft Question... - Anhil8tor - 04-18-2007
Which player drafted by your team broke your heart?
The one that sticks out for me is Jim Drunkemiller in 1997. Dude was 6'6" and could bench press 400 lbs. I thought he was gonna be a stud...
Reggie McGrew shit the bed but I wasn't excited about him.

Maybe Andy Katzenmoyer?
I'll check and get back to you...

Yeah, definitely Katzenmoyer. The Pats have done really well with their first-rounders for the last 14 or 15 years.
I guess Robert Edwards "broke my heart," but that's only because he shredded his knee during a beach flag-football game at the Pro Bowl after a 1,000 yard rookie season.

9ers have made some decent picks the last few years. Really McGrew and Drunkemiller are the only busts. Most had significant playing time with the 9ers. Some like Peterson and Carter has left as free agents.

The 10 worst draft choices
in Eagles history, all but one taken in the 1st round:
Kevin Allen, OT, Indiana. The Eagles' first-round selection of 1985, Allen was taken one place higher than Randall Cunningham, but proved a colossal bust as a pass-protector and a drive-blocker. He was once described by coach Buddy Ryan as a good player to have, "if you want someone to stand around and kill the grass." Off the field, Allen served a prison sentence for sexual assault.
Antone Davis, OT, Tennessee. A classic underachiever, Davis came to the Eagles as their first-round choice of 1991, and he cost them their No. 1 pick of 1992. In the compendium of bad decisions made by Rich Kotite, Davis may have been his worst.
Jon Harris, DE, Virginia. It still seems incredible that Ray Rhodes made Harris the No. 1 choice, and 25th player taken overall, of the 1997 draft. The 6-foot-7, 300-pound Harris had neither the strength nor explosiveness required at defensive end, and had two sacks in two Eagles seasons.
Siran Stacy, RB, Alabama. Stacy was a second-round pick, but the first one the Eagles had in 1992. He played badly, for one season, and won greater headlines for allegedly beating up his girlfriend than for anything he did on the football field. (He was found not guilty in 1995 when the woman did not appear in court.)
Mike Mamula, DE, Boston College. In one of the most regrettable moves of his career, Rhodes traded up to select Mamula with the seventh overall choice of the 1995 draft. On countless pass-rush occasions since, Mamula repeatedly has gotten to the QB too late to make a sack. In 78 career games, Mamula has managed only 311/2 sacks and has rarely played well vs. the run.
Michael Haddix, RB, Mississippi State. Neither strong nor particularly fast, Haddix (picked eighth overall in 1983) nevertheless proved a 1,000-yard rusher, even though it took him three seasons to reach that total.
Kenny Jackson, WR, Penn State. The Eagles' No. 1 draftee of 1984, Jackson never lived up to his collegiate reputation and rarely caught a pass in traffic. He had 40 receptions in his second year but averaged fewer than 14 for each of his six other seasons in Philadelphia.
Leonard Mitchell, DE, Houston. The Eagles' top choice of 1981 played 77 games in six seasons, few of them marked by any great intensity or athleticism. Mitchell was so spiritless a defender, in fact, he was switched to the offensive line.
Lester Holmes, OG, Jackson State, and 10. Leonard Renfro, DT, Colorado. The Eagles drafted this non-dynamic duo with the 19th (Holmes) and 24th (Renfro) overall choices of the 1993 draft. Holmes had an undistinguished career that covered 46 games in Philadelphia. Renfro played half that total, rarely as a starter.

His first year in the NFL he was at the Bruce Smith Celebrity Auction and Golf tourney here. I ended up kicking it to his girlfriend out in the smoking lounge.
