Default What players did you want to draft but turned out to be busts?

What players did you get down on your knees and pray for the Patriots to draft, only to have the Pats pass him and draft someone else. Then, the person you wanted turns out to be a bust.

One of the guys I wanted the Pats to draft was Jonathan Sullivan.

Jonathan Sullivan drafted in a parrarel universe with the Pat's would of been awesome. He would of been a beast in BB's system.<{No idea really} Instead he got drafted by a lousy club that evidently didn't expect or teach excellence. Maybe,maybe not,just a theory.

Not in the first round, but I remember wanting them to take Donald Hayes. And, I thought that I was right when he had one good year with Carolina.

Going to far back for me. Im only 20 and just started following the draft 5 years or so ago. I remember Andy and all of his neck injures but cant remember anything about the draft etc.

The only reason i was extremely high on washington and still am is because belichick said something to the degree of "we're willing to take a chance on greatness" regarding kelley and its stood out to me ever since. Bill himself has said this guy is absolutely special and if not for the injuries would be a top 15 round 1 pick.

Ditto, I remember thinking OH no,, how can this guy help us.

It takes a big man to admit his mistakes. Of course I think I'm currently running 0-for four years on the Patriots draft game.

BTW, maybe it was that Brady kid that made Terrell looks so good, why don't we draft him.
