Default Worst and Best drafted players by BB era and FO in New England

In the BB era who was the very worst and very best draft choices ever? - The players must have been chosen in the first 3 rounds since those players were coveted much more than bottom tier draftees so Tom Brady does NOT count,besides we know he was best ever and theres no one even close but lets just say top 3 rounds.....

1 - worst ever and 1 best ever only.....

BEST EVER - VINCE WILFORK - A durable and good nose tackle is probably the hardest to find in the draft - New England struck gold here even though Wilfork will never be a true pass rusher and with his size he does not need to be,Just needs to hold up the middle of the front 7.

WORST EVER - ADRIAN KLEMM - Was supposed to be the next great offensive lineman in New England history but came nowhere near his potential - a true worthless #1 pick in 2000 (FYI was #1 drafted pick in 2nd round in 2000 since #1 round pick was given to the Jets for BBs arrival - maybe the best non player trade ever in NFL history)


Your picks?

Yeah,I was not sure whether he was drafted in 1999 or 2000 so I double checked it - quickly then adjusted it

Best - Richard Seymour - he cemented the d line for the SB runs. Jury may be out on him presently - injuries and healing may be at play here.

Worst - tough one - I'll go with Bethel Johnson

BEST - How can anyone not say TOM BRADY

WORST - Bethel Johnson. I give BB a pass on Klemm since he was, in reality, working with Grier's draft board and information.

You have to read the disclaimer - only the first 3 rounds you can select from. Of course TB is the best draft pick in Pats history of all time.

Best- Seymour

Worst- Chad Jackson, I know the jury is still out,but the thing that really kills me about him is that I really liked Greg Jennings, So they take Jackson and then sure enough GB takes Jennings from the spot we traded out of. You know what Jennings has never missed a beat and CJ can't get on the field.


***IMOP earl bennett is this years Jennings

Best - Seymour (Wilfork as a close second).

Worst - Probably Bethel Johnson, although I'm sure the worst is someone I can't think of at all. At least Johnson played.
