Yup. They won that with Coach Dungy's players. Three of the next four years under Gruden they had a losing record winning only four and five games in two of those years. I'm sure you remember that stretch, right? Had they not moved on from Dungy and thrown away two 1st rounders AND two 2nd rounders they might have won multiple Super Bowls during that stretch.

Hello? Yes, hello to immediately becoming the doormat of the NFC South.

He!! we throw away first round picks every draft, no difference really. Throwing those 2fers away has cost us quality depth and players that could be good in rotation, not to mention actual starters on the front lines. So if u think Tampa and those picks cost them how come u think different on the Saints? It's like a slow death either way. Tampa just died quicker!! Of course we might have a quick one coming up this season.

What does any of that have to do with a team being unwilling to give up two 1st round picks for Payton? You lost me there.

You never said for Payton, you said Dungy and Gruden

The Gruden deal was the basis for the argument that Payton was worth two 1st's. That's what I was addressing. I can't see any team making that same mistake that the Bucs made in that dumb trade to get Gruden.

That doormat used us as a doormat twice this season... and stepped further into the post-season than we did. Hello.

Gruden is no judge of drafting QB talent either.

Yup. That's just another reason why the trade was so bad.

Chris Sims still thinks he was the second coming, if you listen to him with Florio .
