4 Of The Biggest Draft Mistakes Over The Last Few Years 

Yeah imagine him being on the Patriots the last few years. He would have requested a trade on day 1.

Mental is half of Pro sports. Talented guys end up killing their own careers when talent only goes so far

@@ADUSNhell, my old hockey coach used to take it further. He’s say “Hockey is 90% mental, and 10% being mental.” I think the same can be said for most contact sports

I feel like Adonai Mitchell will be this years Pickens. Very talented WR with a very bad attitude. Mitchell has work ethic concerns too though.

I was going to post about Pickens being an Antono Brown personality (nothing wrong, just not everyone's cup of tea) I know that's why any team that thought it would be too much, makes the talent useless.

As a commanders fan I feel you

At least they got it right with Amari Cooper. Too bad they traded him and in Raiders fashion picked the wrong guy with that 1st round pick in S Jonathan Abram who didn’t even last his rookie contract while the following future Pro Bowl WR were all picked in the 2nd round Deebo Samuel, AJ Brown, Diontae Johnson, Mecole Hardman and Terry McLaurin 😂

@@NotMeNaNaNa mecole hardman is a bum, idgaf about the sb winning td. he's still ass

I feel like Tyree Wilson is about to break out

@@NotMeNaNaNaa chimpanzee could have got cooper right he been nice

I wouldnt write off Thornton quite yet, he was a deep threat with a QB who couldnt throw the ball 10+ yards

It's still on the players to become good pros. Hard work and attention to detail will make any pro a descent player regardless of special ability.

Apparently Gruden was making all the bad early round picks and he would get bored and Mayock would take over and draft players like Maxx Crosby and other solid players

@@future_teknokrat7585 That only applies on a few of your picks. However, Mayock whole draft career picks have been bad.

People gave Mayock too much credit before he was the GM for the Raiders. The dude is not good at understanding talent, nor is he good at working with players.

Mayock was not a true GM. Everyone knows Jon Gruden had the final decision so what picks were truly all Mayock. Were any???

What a terrible pick Ebron was 😭

Though it is a good example, the video is about the last few years, not the last 15.

@@BlakeWR81 Don't care. I am still bitter about it.

@@daycased8200 Haha, I feel that. Don't worry, Mayhew and Quinn can't hurt you anymore.

Yep, I remember being hyped when we drafted C.J. Henderson. He was good - great CB prospect. And I'm a Florida fan. So, going from my favorite CFB team to my favorite NFL team. I was so disappointed when he flopped.

No it definitely has something to do with it, not the most important thing but to say nothing is being disingenuous

It certainly doesn't do him any favors

@@brianbadonde9251that girl disingenius

@@brianbadonde9251with how sticky gloves are nowadays it really doesn't matter.

Bosa.....

@@mattylatvala43 bosa is most certainly an exception.

As a 9ers fan this is my favorite part about us.Round 3-5 lb's and db's are littered across the field for us. Lenoir, Thomas, hufanga, ward(signed, but was a udfa), greenlaw, and plenty others over the years.

@@AD-nv7nw don’t forget that you got Brock Purdy last overall.

This has become such a thing that I am half expecting the 49ers to trade their first two round picks in exchange for the entire 4th round.

JD is still a really good player tho. He’s no Hamilton, however he has not been a bad pick. He and Carter will be good for a long time

Well, you gotta remember during the draft. A lot of people were avoiding Hamilton early.

I'm not really bitter about taking Reagor over JJ because it put them in a position to maneuver around the draft enough to get extra 1st rounders that led to AJ Brown, Devonta Smith, and Jordan Davis. In a vacuum it looks horrible, but in the big picture it worked out better for them.

I couldn't believe teams were passing on Hamilton. I thought he was gonna be an all pro

But Davis was meant to be good while reagor was unknown and threw more people off

I think every eagles fan would still want JJ tho

@@adriencolesnah i’m an eagles fan n im happier w the outcome we got

I'm good, we went to a super bowl and nearly won it without Jefferson. We do thank him for forcing Howie to change his outlook tho. ​@@adriencoles

​@@coreykouakou2701 hope yall win a SB with Hurts and Smith

@@Raidenthephantomsbut now yall are losing AJ so yea it was a fumble

ik Green was gonna be a bust after the dude legit failed the combine

still dont get y he fell tbh. it was clear he was gonna be at least an elite G at the next level

Im surprised penning didn't get moved back to guard where he was a mauler tbh, he only played a few games at tackle in college

@@ghostofmoredishesmorebitch1507 im praying we just move him to LG but knowing mickey and DA he will end up getting traded away for a bag of chips

Tyler failed at tackle? Wasn’t he quite decent at tackle?

@@spidamitchell8311 no he was ass, why tf u think they moved him inside to begin with

Vikings had pick 12 and traded out when Hamilton was on the board

@@FootballAnalysis1 oh shoot I completely forgot about that

I always thought the NFL's focus on player safety would kill Penning's career.

yea bc his crappy QBs holding him back

And those were late round picks.

Same with mac as mac hasn’t had any weapons and has shown flashes

Thank you Jay!

I still remember a Vikings fan saying "Kyle Hamilton is nice but he ain't no Cine". After the draft. That aged well.

Not at the time, hindsight is 20/20

@@22s22a it really kinda was at the time. Almost everybody had CeeDee as the #1 ranked WR in that class, and nobody had him falling outside the top 12 picks.

Which is why Mike Tomlin has to be given credit for managing locker room egos and getting production. AB was an all Pro under Tomlin the moment he leaves is loose cannon and cut

@@jamesknapp64 oh absolutely, it’s impressive work

Nah. I can't really speak for the Browns (though they did make the playoffs last season despite everything going wrong for them, which is only the second year after the colossal mistake that was selling their soul for Groper Cleveland), but the Bears actually did do this very thing with Trubisky and still made the playoffs with him twice. The bottom eventually fell out, but even their most legendary draft fail was never really the disaster it has since been made out to be. He isn't Mahomes, obviously. But does Mahomes even become Mahomes without being drafted into the single most perfect situation for an incoming rookie quarterback ever? And the post-Trubisky rebuild is on the cusp of bearing fruit in year three (for the current GM) or four (overall), not 10. Also, while the Niners still had a playoff caliber team outside the QB position, they would likely have been in a much more precarious situation had they not bumblefucked their way into a franchise QB with the literal last pick in the draft. It doesn't matter how well any given franchise is run, a Brock Purdy falling into your lap is just pure dumb luck. You simply can't find anyone that good that late on purpose. Even if you could, completely whiffing at the very top of the draft the year before completely negates any credit you'd deserve for it.

Lance is wearing 13 in a Commanders uniform?

Yeah that was a head scratcher for sure. Forbes got picked on so much. I hope the Commanders can land Rakestraw jr in the second round. I still have PTSD from when my team the Steelers drafted Artie Burns.

I mean I completely get it even tho it was the wrong move. There are different types of number 1 CBs they thought they were both CB1s but they wanted the playmaking CB1 over the shutdown don't even throw to his side CB1. Unfortunately for them Forbes isn't even a CB1.
