Talk:1999 NFL draft

History: Possibly the craziest draft ever. #1Tim Couch and #3Akili Smith (Bengals) are slated to be the franchise QB for the new Cleveland Browns. Couch goes #1 but both fail miserablily in their respective teams. #2 Donovan McNabb is booed by Philly fans who want #5 Ricky Williams (turns out the fan were wrong as Ricky will miss most of his career to suspension and McNabb take the Eagle to serveral NFC chamiponships and eventually SB XXXIX).

After Coach Mike Ditka gives away all his picks to move up to take Ricky Williams, Indy passes on him to take #4 Edgerrin James who runs for over 3,000 yard in his first 3 seasons. Ricky Williams has trouble scoring his rookie season and Ditka eventually gets fired. Williams is traded and all the pick N.O. gave up make other teams a lot better. Deuce McAllister replaces Ricky and has several good seasons.

Also #28 New England Andy Katzenmoyer MLB from Ohio State is a standout college player but gets a neck injury and quits fearing future serious damage. Also their are rumor that he is the dumbest player on earth and never learns the defensive scheme. #29 Minnesota Dimitrius Underwood DT from Michigan State is a complete nut job. He tries to kill himself twice and never lives up to his potential.

NFL Undrafted Players section
An anonymous user who uses different IP addresses (2606:6000:ce83:8400:a0f1:8aad:7470:2c88, 2605:a000:140d:4329:b11d:cf36:5130:2d32, 2605:a000:140d:4329:848d:f811:202d:ed5c, 2605:a000:140d:4329:c569:4f92:ca28:4a7a) has reverted the edits in the Notable Undrafted Player section of the 1999 NFL Draft, 1998 NFL Draft, 2009 NFL Draft, 1996 NFL Draft, 2007 NFL Draft, 1995 NFL Draft and others. Putting players that did not have a notable career and are just classified as undrafted. This is not the first time that it has happened with this user, so I would ask for somebody to review this case, because the essence of this section is being selective with the players being put there.Makers267 (talk) 18:52, 12 May 2018 (UTC)
