    Awesome research, man. You must be bored as fuck; or your job is awful; or both.

    I'd rather have Keyshawn Johnson over every guy on that list except for Ogden and Lewis.

    Terrell Owens was a hell of find by the Niners and Mike Alstott was a fullback.

    Terrible thread.

    I'm sorry. Can you point me to the Good Thread Criteria Department?

    If you don't like it, don't reply.

    I'm surprised the Colts had so many. I guess I'm too used to seeing them be successful.

    Prior to Payton, they were sad. Plus a few of them came from their Baltimore days.

    Lately everyone remembers the Colts picking Peyton Manning and how successful he's been.

    But the franchise also had the infamous John Elway #1 (non)pick in 1984 and Jeff George at #1 in 1990.

    Even worse, in 1992 they had the #1 AND the #2 pick in the entire draft and BOTH guys ended up busts (Steve Emtman & Quentin Coryatt). Now that's embarrassing.

    We usually win a game or two when it is meaningless at the end of the season when we are in contention for the #1 pick, thus ruining some draft hopes.
