Luckily we made the most of it by picking Heath Shuler.

Actually I think it had to do more with the team getting old. There just wasn't enough good young players in the pipeline to replace aging vets. Plus those first few years of free agency Casserly totally blew it on the guys he brought in. Tim Magee, Al Noga, Tom Carter, Desmond Howard ( that was Gibbs) John Friez, Stanley Richard, Tyronne Stowe, James Washington and so on. There was also a LB from Seattle that COULD NOT tackle anyone. Forgot his name. I can't believe I even remember some of those bums. lol.
