    Oh man I remember when we drafted Roger Vick. Oooof.

    Who drafts a fullback in the first round?

    Don't forget Alex Gordon.

    I was young so may I remember incorrectly but I remember him playing pretty well those first couple of weeks before the strike then never being able to get it back after the strike.

    I don't think Brady belongs w/ those 2, Brady was a good player for us just not a pass catching TE that everyone wanted.

    Not a total bust but a definite disappointment with a 1st round pick

    Ron Faurot had a little Rick "Charmin" Nash in him, but at the same time, Walton trying to "square peg-round hole" him from a DE at Arkansas to a 3-4 OLB also screwed him up. Then Walton drops him like a hot potato, he blows out his knee with San Diego and it's all over. In his day the guy was the Bolts' Billy Ray Smith's wingman at Ark.

    That photo is from the game the Jets blew a 20-3 lead. The Patriots won 30-20. My father did a lot of bitching that day. That was the first day I realized there was something wrong with this franchise.

    Ah, the famed 99 yarder at Mile High.
    Jets Trivia: O'Neal's predeccesor Curley Johnson
    also wore #20 in '61-62 before wearing #33 ('63-69)
    other Jets (Derrick Strait #20 in '06, #21 before that in '04-05).

    NY Titans Trivia:
    Guess "The Two Stooges" in this photo?
    (no, that's not Mo Howard kicking)

    Guess this NY Jet who also wore #20?

    Delles Howell...
    O'neal's punt carried 75 yards in the air and was 98 yards, 1 yd line to 1 yd line, a definite product of Mile High Stadium...Curly Johnson was a much better punter than him...
