Who is the player shown to the side? If you're like 90% of normal football fans you wouldn't know but this is Steve Emtman, the number pick in the 1992 draft.
He adds to a great list of other bad number one picks Ki-Jana Carter, Dan Wilkinson, Kenneth Sims, Aundray Bruce, Courtney Brown & Walt Putalski.
These were all "slam dunk" picks. "Difference makers", "Can't misses", etc. as proclaimed by the various draft gurus Mel Kiper, Jerry Jones, etc.
If you are one of the people that head to your local sports bar and watch the draft for three hours with a bunch of buddies, here's a hint; you are a loser.
Here's my prediction for the draft this weekend. Every team will make their picks, each owner, coach, general manager will tell the media they had a good draft and filled their needs and by the end of August half of the picks will be off their teams.
If you want to be entertained this weekend, go down to Liberty and Vine and dodge some bullets.
