Whats the worst move youve seen yet?

I have two;

1. Guy takes Aaron Rodgers with the 8 pick in a ten man league. Then takes Peyton Manning in the 2nd because they were the two highest rated players when it was his pick. What...the...frick?!

2. Guys takes Sidney Rice in the first round at like the 7-8 spot. Of allllll the Receivers left on the board....you take Sidney Rice?! Again, what...the...frick?!

Nothing stands out so far in my 3 drafts, but years ago, someone drafted a player (Yatil Green) who blew his knee out at the start of training camp 3 weeks prior.

Couple years back someone took rookie tight end John Carlson in 1st round. Dude was wasted by the time draft started though.

Few years back when everyone was going RB-RB in the first two rounds, guy in my league takes Peyton Manning in the first and Kurt Warner in the second. He said at the time that he was thinking trade bait. But in our league, teams don't do much trading. Many years, there are no trades. No one traded with the guy and his team went down in flames, led, of course, by two supremely capable QBs.

Couple years ago I snagged Rudy Johnson 1st Round 11th overall, then followed that gem up with Travis Henry in the 2nd. FML.

More busts really.

Invited a friend of mine into our league this year who has never done it. He watches football so we figured he knew enough.

He got the second pick and uses it on Drew Brees the follows that by drafting 5 straight Saints players including the defense.

Got a guy like that too. He's got the 4th pick and is already told me he's snagging Brees. Guy at 5th is getting Rice or MJD.

It'll be hilarious if he does well.

Back in like 1995 or so, a guy in our league took the Dallas Defense as the #1 overall pick.

We laughed our asses off for days.

He ended up winning the entire league.

I still haven't recovered.
