Coming at you live from New York City! What better way to celebrate my arrival than to look back at some of the greatest draft day screw-ups in history, all attributed to one team, the "home" team of the draft, the New York Jets. Enjoy this trip down memory lane! --

LOL

How’d you like to get BOOED at the draft? That’s gotta be something.

If you end up a major bust

then the boo was warranted.

Sad

Amazing how the Jets’ fans were right more than their ‘braintrust’ in the selections. If only they had listened to them and not taken Ken O’Brien over Marino and Kyle Brady over Sapp.

I love the “We want Sapp” chant they had going.

J-E-T-S, Boo, boo booooooooooo

i gotta tell ya

i’m from NY and alot of my friends are jets fans and they have been mighty upset about the jets draft debacles over the years. None more than not taking Sapp. We thought for sure the jets would take him. We were like Kyle Brady??? Another draft day blunder the Jets will come realize they made was not taking Cutler, much to my happiness of course.

Kyle Brady and Jeff Lagaman....

Two FINE Jaguars. What’s bad for the JETS was great for us…

Sapp

I remember the Sapp debacle as well. I am a Penn St. fan, but I didn’t think Brady was worth a pick in the first round. Johnny Mitchell was one that surprised me as far as being a bust was concerned. I thought he would be pretty good. Lam Jones was a pretty big bust as well. A Mr. Monk was taken about 17-19 picks later in the first round that year. I think he is now in the HOF, I think.
