Amazing Fact about the Ravens
All but 3 of their first round picks since 1996 have made the Pro Bowl. That is good drafting.
1996 - Jonathan Ogden (Pro Bowl) 1996 - Ray Lewis (Pro Bowl) 1997 - Peter Boulware (Pro Bowl) 1998 - Duane Starks 1999 - Chris McAllister (Pro Bowl) 2000 - Jamal Lewis (Pro Bowl) 2000 - Travis Taylor 2001 - Todd Heap (Pro Bowl) 2002 - Ed Reed (Pro Bowl) 2003 - Terrell Suggs (Pro Bowl) 2003 - Kyle Boller That is just amazing. |

Ive allways found it ironic that Billick came in as a QB/Offensive genius and hasnt had a QB worth a squirt of piss since he's been there, but he has an awesome defense (that cant beat KC, tho)...

If memory serves, 7 of those 11 picks were top-10, which might well have something to do with their draft success, but either way it is impressive.

I think what is more impressive than that is how many high draft picks the Chiefs have made that not only didn't make the Chiefs starting lineup, not only didn't make the Chiefs roster, but couldn't make any teams roster in such a short period of time:
Eddie Freeman Eric Downing Snoop Minnis Sly Morris To my knowledge all of those turds are out of the league at this point.

I think Freeman is with the Cards and Downing is on the Chargers.

There are a lot of bad picks by the Chiefs. There are also a lot of great pick-ups in free agency. The fact is that we have not won a SB lately. We are also in the top 5 (maybe higher) for number of wins for the last 10 years. That is a lot of happy Sundays. I would like to win a SB but I have also had a lot of fun Sundays and Mondays at Arrowhead. We'll win it again soon. Happy Holidays!

Freeman was cut by the Cards after just a couple weeks...I did look up Downing and you are correct, he is on the Bolts roster...He hasn't been activated or stepped on the field in the last 6 games.

Yeah, I'd have to go look at their roster, but really that's a team that stacked it's whole freaking roster through the draft. Ozzie Newsome makes Carl look like an amateur, you look at their drafts over the last few years and it makes your stomach turn. That's why their "rebuilding" phase after running up to the cap in winning a Super Bowl and having to cut guys was a miserable 8-8 season where they were still in the playoff race up until the last week. Drafting well solves a lot of problems...
