    The worst part about the 2008 and 2009 drafts are that players from these drafts should be forming the core of the team moving forward and there aren't any players with which to form the core.

    Each draft failure sets you back by 2-3 years IMO especially for a team who don't do much during FA...

    Ravens too had few bad drafts but they hit gold in FA...Flacco and Rice draft was great for them..
