That 2009 Denver Broncos draft was awful. The Falcons draft from the same year might have been worse:

1 24 ATL Peria Jerry DT 2011 0 0 0 3 34 15 2.0 Mississippi
2 55 ATL William Moore DB 2011 0 0 2 7 30 100 7 0.5 Missouri
3 90 ATL Christopher Owens DB 2011 0 0 1 5 46 68 3 1.0 San Jose St.
4 125 ATL Lawrence Sidbury DE 2011 0 0 0 2 38 13 5.0 Richmond
5 156 ATL Garrett Reynolds T 2011 0 0 0 0 21 2 North Carolina
5 138 ATL William Middleton DB 2011 0 0 0 3 39 71 2 1.0 Furman
6 176 ATL Spencer Adkins LB 2011 0 0 0 1 24 6 Miami (FL)
7 210 ATL Vance Walker DT 2011 0 0 0 3 42 32 2.0 Georgia Tech

The best player on there? Adkins, maybe? William Middleton?

William Moore is the only guy who rose to the level of starter from this class for the Falcons.

The Falcons might have a dynastic roster if this one draft had been better.

Actually, the 2009 Browns draft was pretty awful as well. They got a pro bowler (Alex Mack) in the first, traded down three times to get him, then with the picks they got for trading down, they picked up roster fodder.
