i still wonder where ESPN stores Mel Kiper when the draft is over..
Under a rock
They let him out occasionally during the college football season so he can get some fresh air
Mel "bring out the Gimp" Kyper.
Niiiiice!
Who had the last laugh, *hahahaaaa*
"Who in the hell is Mel Kiper anyway?" A question we still struggle to answer in 2019.
He's an idiot
Mel kiper is a guy that ignorant NFL fans that dont watch college football like too reference to their friends around draft time because they have know idea about any of the college players. College football rocks.
@Kolby olson--hahahaha, I seriously doubt that guy went past 8th grade, let alone college. Then again, I may have know idea. I'll have too reference to my friends.
Change the year to 2020 cuz I still don’t know who tf is this goo
Dracula
Who’s here after hearing about the passing of Bill Tobin? And how ironic that his passing comes just days before the NFL draft. His rant about Mel Kiper was an all time classic. It was must watch TV. May he RIP up in heaven with his brother Vince.
RIP to Chris Mortensen as well.
Wow funny how I didn’t even know that neither of these guys died
@@ramon78433 Where have you been? Hiding under a rock or something?

R.I.P Bill Tobin (1941-2024)
Tobin should be in the Hall of Fame. He drafted 8 NFL Hall of Famers. Not many GM's can say that............
The best draft moment ever! “Who in the hell is Mel Kiper!” Brilliant!
Raphael Rau Mel Kiper doesn't know anymore than my postman!
Mel Kiper said "Daniel Jones is worthy of a 1st round pick". Never mentioned Daniel Jones once, until NYG drafted him
Harry Engel exactly. He’s a good pick picked too early. Coulda got a lineman
I miss the days when people were honest in interviews like this
the days aren't gone.
Have you ever seen Bill Burr?
What do you watch?
It was just as rare then as it is now, but it definitely happens. Folks get fired all the time for going to far now.
@@sillygoose635 that's a racist statement
Mel was the start of today's sports news routine. Predict something based on opinion and little info, and when it doesn't happen, act amazed. Repeat every day. Sports fans can't get enough.
Yup! Rinse and repeat. Just go on TV and act confident and unflinching about the nonsense of sports predictions
@@ChrisSuswal-de9tj Things have gotten worse since 2 years ago. As Colin Cowherd said, 'It's better to be interesting than correct'. There is almost no real sports journalism anymore. Even when someone like Seth Wickersham does an article that corrects a bunch of speculation by the hot takers, the hot takers will take pieces of his article and misinterpret and speculate more BS theories that weren't even implied. They feed narratives that 95% of 'fans', who don't care enough to know history, want to believe.
5:18 the birth of “here’s a guy”
its funny but the colts not taking Dilfer is the reason they landed Peyton Manning 4 years later
Exactly and Tobin was fired in time for the Colts to come to their senses.
Actually I think having Trent dilfer for 4 years still would have granted the Colts the opportunity to pick Peyton manning in 98......unless you believe he would've done better than harbaugh in 97
@@williamshultz4620 Harbaugh played a good 4 years with us. Well 97 was a bad year as a whole but he was better then dilfer and really wanted to win
@Harry Engel mainly because of injuries.
@Harry Engel I would say so. He may have been a bust even without injuries. I don't know much about him, just that he had a myriad of injuries including shoulder reconstruction.
Mel Kiper is like a Meteorologist. Still keep their job, when they’re wrong 80% of the time.
So gd funny dude
Weak ass comment
@@rubenabautista1995 Your Momma
Nice!
Like a meteorologist he's also never wrong, things just change xD
Kiper has never put on a jock strap, been a coach, a scout, or administrator. So true!!!!!
You've never scouted player or wrote a book either
He was an Assistant Coach with Grambling St. In his late 20s.
@@Paul-wu7xd But did he put on a jock strap?
Greatest thing a GM has ever said ever; spot on, Mel Kiper is the greatest snake oil salesmen the world has ever seen
Except Kiper was right and Tobin dead wrong.
@@STP43FAN1 right about who? Dilfer over Faulk? You're kidding, right?
@@STP43FAN1 Lmao you really think Dilfer was worth such a high pick!?
Yeah, kiper criticized taking Faulk a hof'er and super bowl winner. That's a massive L for him
@@sbrownfi No, it wasn't Dilfer over Faulk, pay attention....it was Dilfer over Trev Alberts...a guy who was out of the league in three years. He was a HUGE draft bust. Dilfer was definitely not as good as Kiper thought, but he also wasn't as bad as a lot of the people in here are pretending. He had a 13 year career, was a pro-bowler, and even RAY LEWIS says that cutting Dilfer was the worst mistake the Ravens made, and they might have gone back to the superbowl if they hadn't cut him.
"Who the hell is Mel Kiper?"
Hahaha luv it!
Wait a minute Mr. Postman!

Kiper looks like he want some football bbc
Mel Kiper looks like a vampire from some 1950's horror movie.
I don’t drink ... wine
Yes he does. And yet somehow he also looks like a bird of prey. Maybe an owl or a hawk... I can't quite pinpoint the species
Because he sucks. Get it?
Nowadays he looks like the Counts father.
With that last name and nose it's no surprise
Bela Lugosi would be proud
I remember watching this as it happened. Me and my friends could not stop.lsughing at" Who the Hell is Mel Kiper antway." And Mels face when Tobin was blasting him.
Mel kiper is hilarious. After every draft when he does his draft grades, teams that pick what he guessed they’d pick get good grades, when a team picks differently then Mel he gives them a bad grade
Well, it makes sense to give a bad grade to teams that pick players that u don't see the talent
@@andr_530lol it makes sense
"Mel Kiper never even put on a jockstrap"
The last time any of these media clowns wore a uniform was when their mother took them trick or treating.
@@edwardcricchio6106 Are we sure that Kiper even played high school football? He seems more like a fanboy for the NFL then a legit expert. And why is only an expert on the draft, he's never on TV during the actual NFL season breaking down games. Basically he's just a speculator.
Love it! Lmao
Mel should have rolled up the next year with a jock strap on the outside of his suit.
I laughed so hard that
That’s a wealthy post man. Next door to a GM in the NFL

RIP BILL TOBIN almost a 30 year anniversary of what happened in 1994 a Day that will live In infamy
Then the OJ incident happened lol
That mailman might've known more the Kiper, because Kiper actually thought Dilfer was a can't miss talent.
Favorite thing Kiper said in reference to Aaron Rodgers was that he had problems launching the long ball and didn't have the clutch gene lmfao
The two years spent under brett favre probably helped. Also mike holmgren and mike mccarthy had nothing to do with it?
He can throw the long ball, but Rodgers record in clutch situations is pretty bad.
One could say that Arron Rogers never lived up to his full potential so in that aspect he wasn't wrong.
@@bnoone2292 The Packers pretty much wasted Rogers. He was not served well by that organization.
@@bnoone2292 that's absolute nonsense. Nobody ever expected Rodgers to become anything close to what he became.

Fun fact: Jim Harbaugh was a better QB than Dilfer ended up being.
Where's the fun part?

@@kingerty5574 dilfer got a dam ring by riding the ravens Defense
@@sandshrew8148 team game idiot lmao dilfer a champion u ain't 🤣 😂 😆 💀
The type of success you have as a player is heavily dependent on the type of system you end up in. I’m not a Dilfer fan, but it would have been interesting to see how the first half of his career would have looked like with a young Marshall Faulk to hand off and throw to as a safety valve.
“Woah, Mel, where ya goin’ babes?”
Man, Joe Theismann is the best.
If I recall, Mel Kiper was that dude who wouldn't shut up about Jimmy Clausen being a top 10 pick, only for him to fall out of the 1st round completely and quickly fade into obscurity. Guess his crystal ball was in the shop that day.
Is he that one dude that played for Washington in college and got drafted by the titans
@@henryjw15 Jimmy Clausen was the highly touted QB from Notre Dame. Drafted in 2010.

Yeah my Panthers had to suffer through the Clausen Era (Error)
Coming to pay respects to the late Bill Tobin, who made draft history with that statement.
RIP Bill Tobin......a lot of us will still be wondering who the hell is Mel Kiper anyway
Mel Kiper is the same guy who said JaMarcus Russell would be the next John Elway. He said Mike Williams a receiver from USC drafted by the Detroit Lions would be a hall of famer. He also said Jason Smith drafted by the St.Louis Rams with the 2nd overall pick in 2009 would be the next Walter Jones.
Sean Wolenski lol kipper just a hype beast he probably say josh Allen is eleway
Yeah he blows. Mayock is decent.
It really isn't his fault that guys don't reach their potential
I think he said Cam would only succeed if he switched to.... wide receiver.
Mayock watches more film than Kiper does.
JIm Harbaugh went on to lead the league in passing that year and the Colts won their first playoff game in decades....the Hair loses again.
This was the 1994 draft, you're referring to the 1995 season. Also Harbaugh and the Colts had a record of 20-26 the four years he was their starter and Alberts was out of the league after 3 seasons (probably should've drafted a qb there instead).
TheFection are you trying to suggest Trent Dilfer or heath shuler were better than jim harbaugh? That’s laughable. Jim harbaugh would have gone 14-2 with the 2000 ravens…
@Erik Thomas I said that. OP said Harbaugh led the league in passing "that year" (1994) when he did it the year after (1995).
@@TheLocalLt nobody mentioned either of those guys but you. Fallacies and strawman arguments are great though.
TheFection bro again you are the one who implied they made a mistake, not me. The
QBs available were Shuler and Dilfer. Did you even watch the video?
Tobin has drafted 8 Hall of Famers (Payton, Singletary, Covert, Dent, Hampton, McMichael, Faulk, and Harrison) throughout his career. What has Kiper done?
C A Tobin was the Bears GM when they drafted Payton Dent etc. Jim Finks was the GM and the guy in charge of the draft.
Kiper has mock drafted every hall of famer in the common draft era.
@Barry Super Pretty sure he was joking lol
He’s done more than you
And those guys should’ve won more with the Bears and Colts. They underachieved
This was one of the best draft moments ever. I was mind blown when this originally aired.
‘Marshall Faulk went on to the hall of fame.....’As a member of the Rams lmao
Abraham Rivera he was still a pro bowler in Indy though. So he was still a hit.
In the NFL, you represent every team you played for when you go into the Hall of Fame. Reggie White played for the Carolina Panthers for one season but on the Pro Football Hall of Fame website, he's listed under the Eagles, Packers, and Panthers.
Abraham Rivera what do you mean as a member of the Rams? You don’t go into the NFL hall of fame with a team lmao just cuz you didn’t watch him on the colts doesn’t mean everyone forgets. He played with Peyton on the colts the first year
Yeah, but if they pick Dilfer then they don't pick Manning and they still lose Faulk (probably)
They definitely did better than Kiper.
Hw played a good 5yrs and went to pro bowls in indy
"Heath Shuler and Trent Dilfer: The top 2 Quarterback prospects"
So the 1994 Draft was a bad year for QBs?
Pretty much, basically there were only two Pro Bowl QB's that came out of that draft, Trent Dilfer and 7th round pick Gus Frerotte.
In fact, the two best QB's to come out of 1994, weren't even drafted AT ALL, if you can believe that! There were two QB's that went undrafted in 1994, one of them was a 4X Pro Bowler and took 3 different teams to the playoffs througout his career. The other is an NFL Hall of Famer who many consider the greatest undrafted player of all-time.
Those two players are Jeff Garcia and Kurt Warner!!!!
Shuler is the biggest bust in history. Yeah, worse than Leaf or Russell!
It was so much harder to Qb back then than it is now. Watching football back then was boring bc it was so much running. These days the corners cant get away with so much roughness and the qbs are protected better. Qbs have a much better chance in todays game
Frood no it was the best class ever and your the prom king and have a car dealership
Dilfer won a Superbowl and Shuler is ... somewhere
"Who the hell is Mel Kiper anyway" pretty much sums it up. Not sure why anyone still values that guy's opinion. The best QB's in that draft were Dilfer and Gus Frerotte which says a lot. The best thing anyone can say about Dilfer is that he was probably the worst QB to ever win a superbowl and was at his best when he didn't turn the ball over.
Dilfer went to the Bucs and the Bucs in the early 90's were some of the worst teams in history. That ain't his fault.
He fulfills a role. Every channel and website has a kiper now.
And that's the moral of the story - the Colts did much better with the way they went than if they'd listened to Mel. There's a reason why Mel's never worked for an NFL team - that dude produces content for fans, not for teams.
The Colts second pick was a disaster; the only thing the Colts gained from trading Jeff George was they got Peyton Manning in 1998.
You’re wasting time talking about him
Mel was acting like Trent Dilfer was freakin Joe Montana
Dilfer did win a Super Bowl. Let's show some respect.
@@puremercury I didn’t say anything negative about him, but he was never a great player and Mel Kiper was acting like he was a can’t miss prospect. That’s all I’m saying
@@puremercury So did Jeff Hostetler with the Giants. Him and Dilfer were game managers with a solid offense and a strong defense. Thats why they both only won one. Dilfer was ok at best and a one year wonder of sorts.
@@jzm6403 Dilfer's best year was 1997 with the Bucs, not 2000 with the Ravens. He made the Pro Bowl that year and looked like a legit starter. Also, I like him because he is still to this day the only NFL QB to be ejected from a game. He threw a punch at John Randle. He had a bit of Ron Hextall to him. Plus, he lost a child and openly dealt with grief and depression. I admire the way he got his life back together.
@@puremercury And Harbaugh got to the AFC Title game with that team that is always picking 2nd.
The real story should have been how in the hell does a postman live next door to a NFL GM?
Exactly!!!!!
On another note, I Want You Back is one of my favorite songs, so thanks for that.
Jesse Andersson 😂
LOOOL!!!
postman? UPS VP
Keep in mind it’s 1994. He wasn’t that rich. Postman was a federal job that paid well, with plenty of benefits, and he might’ve even been in upper management.
Logically, it’s probably somewhere in the suburbs you’d expect typical middle-class income people to reside.
Bill Tobin was completely correct in everything he said
Subpar GM for the Colts. Loser is a stooge thought, he was right about that…
Rip to bill tobin. Didn’t know you but you stick it to Mel and I will never for get it 😂 RIP
I know it’s fashionable for football fans to be critical of Kiper, I really appreciate him. He is a hard worker and the write ups in his draft guides were thorough.
who?
Mel Kiper also thought Jimmy Clausen was a franchise QB. Kiper is a joke.
Alot of GM's in the league are jokes, too. QB is a pretty tough position to scout. Look how many teams get it wrong.
@@Bl00dwerK Thing is, Kiper bet his career that Jimmy wouldn't be a bust and hasn't honored that statement.
@@osu5inarow hyperbole
Clausen only got one season to play. He clearly wasn't ready but was never given a second chance. Plus he was played on a shitty team.
@@benkennedy3376 Carolina wasn't a bad team. Pretty good defense and offense. Clausen is just cursed because he went to Notre Dame. No good QB came from them since the 70s
Clausen, Kizer, Quinn... trash, waste, garbage
Dude also thought the lions should of taken Brady Quin over Calvin Johnson
robbiesilverwolf at the time The Lions drafted a receiver with their first pick for 3 consecutive years with no QB. So it makes sense why he’s believe that.

R.I.P. Mort. Crazy to think that so many legends I grew up with (Mort, John Clayton, Stuart Scott, John Saunders) are no longer with us. Mort was awesome.
Kiper is what happens when there is a 24/7 sports cycle.
I'll never forget Mel Kiper's evaluation on Jamarcus Russell
I can't exactly recall that, but I bet it was kind of like this:
Probably started with Kiper saying something about an athletic build, great speed on the run/scrambler, with a ton of potential... Nevermind that Jamarcus couldn't make reads on any type of defense being used in the NFL.
Jimmy Her so much people compared Jamarcus with Elway
or Jimmy Clausen 😂😂😂
Tyler Kemp tremendous upside
Jimmy Her ummm.... Russell was a consensus #1 pick when he came out. you going to only target Kiper though? no critique for a plethora of nfl GM's and personnel evaluators. not too mention millions of fans who readily agreed coming out he was #1. but somehow, only kiper draws criticism. well whatever
7:01 Chris Berman looking at Mel Kiper like “are you sure you took the right medication this morning?” 🤣
This will never get old
Best thing about the Colts not drafting Heath Shuler or Trent Dilfer in 1994 is that they drafted Peyton Manning(a hall of fame quarterback) four years later in 1998 and he brought the Colts to 2 Super Bowls while winning one. Yes I know Bill Tobin was fired before the Colts drafted Peyton Manning but it still worked for them.
We're supposed to believe Bill Tobin lived next door to a mailman?
Either Tobin is cheap or underpaid, or that mailman is overpaid.
Mailmans wife had a good job
BRAVO2I4 That mailman was selling drugs on the side i guess. Or Bill Tobin lived way below his means.
hahaha
Thats what I was thinking
“Where you going babes?”😂
RIP Bill Tobin
Even in 2020, this dynamic showdown betw. Kiper and Tobin still has impact
One thing Mel Kiper has taught me, the NFL Draft is not a science. There are too many variables and intangibles to predict with much accuracy how productive a college player will be at the professional level.
Thats one of the really cool things about football, there are so many different positions, schemes, styles of play, and techniques. the draft is fascinating in that regard.
'Who in the hell is mel kiper' 🤣😂🤣😂🤣 i ask myself the same thing every draft
Much more important in life than Dixon Cider
RIP Bill Tobin, we still don’t know who Mel Kiper is
At 2:23 they talk about how the Colts acquired the Falcons first round pick by trading Jeff George. The problem is that the person in the picture is not Jeff George, it's Bobby Herbert.
I noticed that too. Bobby made the Pro Bowl after the 1993 season and was demoted to backup Jeff George. Bobby ends up replacing him in 1996 after he was suspended.
Love Theisman’s facial expression during Kiper’s blow up tantrum at around 4:22. 😂🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂
4:52- Love Joe Theismann's use of air quotes for "analyst"
Mel Kiper. A man who never played a game that he says he's an expert of. Gave the Seahawks whole 2012 draft an "F" for drafting Wilson, Bruce Irving and Bobby Wagner.
😂😂😂😂
You never scouted
"got my Irish up" lmao im going to start saying that
Fighting Irish for a reason
Are you?
Digging these draft vids! Make more!!! Thanks!
Both QBS were trash 😂 😂 😂 Marshall Faulk... HOF 😂 😂 😂
dondodda don Alberts wasn’t even worth the last pick in the draft let alone being traded up to get him.
ya but what years did he play with manning? then he went and played with warner
also they made the AFC championship game the next season and were a dropped hail mary away from the Superbowl, with Jim Harbaugh. Yeah they never won the big one until they got Manning, but i mean winning it all is hard.
One was trashy enough to be the starting QB for the Superbowl winning Baltimore Ravens. Yes I know all about the defense, but still - trash is a bit much for Dilfer.
That wasn't the point. Kiper was saying that the Colts can't go into the future with just Jim Harbaugh. So they needed to take a QB.
Man, Mort looked all kinds of shook up when Tobin walked in for that interview.
Who's here after hearing of Bill Tobin's passing today?
Tobin made the right pick with Faulk at #2 at number 5 trev alberts was a mistake but dilfer wasn’t any better. Overall Tobin got it right.
cpk1994 you can't predict injuries.
Roger B he got injured so there's no way of truly telling
Tobin waa fired after going 3 -13 in 97... nuff said.... wasted pick in 94... cost him 97...
Jared Flanagan "nuff said" ok teenage girl
ihateyall .... r u asking me out?? 😚😚😚😎😋
1994 NFL draft probably the most exciting thrilling moments Bill Tobin vice-president general manager Indianapolis Colts famous quotes who the heck is Mel Kiper 😂 it still cracks me up
This is great. What a moment in history!
Cracks me up to this day watching Tobin with that Tom Collins in his hand going off on Mel.... and Theismann’s face is hilarious. 🤣
that was the best clap back ever from Bill Tobin! Did it all without spilling his water.
I find it hard to believe that an NFL GM lived next to a postman.
Before the internet, people sent in hate mail. So probably made sense.
Maybe he lived frugally
The internet was around way before 1994.
The postman makes 3mil a year advising the Colts on there draft picks :P.
I don't think GMs made that much money back then. Not like now.
This has been recommended for me since like 2017 so I guess I’ll finally watch it.
This is amazing !!!
I remember pretty vividly when Mel went off on Miami taking Ted Ginn Jr. Over Brady Quinn when he slipped.
Hagenator I still think about it. And Ginn is still here! 😂
@Harry Engel people purposely ignore relevance to suit their agenda.
Kiper should have been thrown out of the booth for good the second he uttered "How could the colts pass on a QB like Trent Dilfer"? Hahahah... This clown is still on TV 25 years later....
Not like Harbaugh was good.
@@rollotomassi4768 Harbaugh was a pro-bowl QB the next season in 1995. He had a QB Rating of 100.7 in 1995, and the Colts went to the conference championship winning their first playoff games in years. Was he an all time great QB? No, but he was more than serviceable in 1995. The Colts then went on to get Manning a few years later precisely by NOT reaching and getting stuck with a non-franchise caliber QB (Dilfer) in 1994. Moral of the story: Kiper is, was, and always will be, an idiot with a loud mouth and a bad haircut.
Jason Celli Dilfer won A SuperBowl
soulsergeant the fact the ravens won a super bowl with Dilfer at QB should tell you just how amazing their defense and special teams were that season...Dilfer was not a good QB by nfl standards, far from great the way Kioer was predicting, but he wound up in the right place at the right time
@todd long Dilfer played for 13 years and made a Pro Bowl. He wasn't great but he was a solid NFL player. pro-football-reference has him as the 26th best player taken that year.
Colts didn't necessarily need to take him, but they deserve some flak for trading up to take a guy who ended up being a bust. Of course the draft is always a bit of a crapshoot. Rodney Harrison went 145th that year, and Denver took Tom Nalen (center for the two Elway SB wins) 218th.
I remember this as clear as day im so old
I didn't see it when it originally aired back then but I remember catching it afterwards on ESPN back in 1994 after the initial dust up. It was so damn funny.
At 4:00 - 4:20: Hey Mel! How’s that FRANCHISE QUARTERBACK Trent Dilfer????
The Colts went to the AFC Title Game one year later. Dilfer got Sam Wyche fired and needed to ride the Ravens bus to have a ring on his finger.
iloveyoumadhuri I was just about to bring this up lmao 😂😂
Colts also traded away Faulk for next to nothing and drafted a total bust in Alberts 5th overall. Kiper was wrong about Dilfer, but Tobin completely screwed up this draft and nearly every draft until he was let go. Thank god the Colts got to pick Peyton Manning and lucked out getting Bruce Arians as QB coach for him.
How did Trent ride the Ravens when he started that season and won his own Super Bowl?
I get that he’s not the best QB and never was a franchise caliber QB, but he played great that season and was one of the reasons they won a Super Bowl.
And what happened after that lol
To be fair, Trev Alberts was a wayyyy bigger bust than Dilfer. And Tobin's AFC Championship game roster went 3-13 2 years later. He was not a good GM.
Funny how NFL Films mention the second pick getting cut after three seasons but failed to mention how Heath Shuler was a miserable failure.
@cpk1994 Kiper had Dilfer and Schuler ahead of Faulk. Kiper was mad they didn't take either QB. If the Redskins picked a different player and the Colts picked Schuler, Kiper would have been happy and the Colts would have continued to suck. By the way "idiot" is not a sentence, no punctuation needed.
coffeeinthemorning I dunno why you guys think he has zero to do with it. Kiper stated the colts should have taken him if he was available. IF HE WAS AVAILABLE. That is completely relevant. The whole passing contest is over Kiper’s knowledge of the game and scouting. 99 out of 100 people would tell you Marshall Faulk was the best pick of the three and the 1 out of 100 was schuler’s mom.
you know a guy was bad at football when his wikpidea page spends more time talking about his poltical career
Im trying to figure out how would "we" know if the colts picked shuler they wouldve continued to suck? We dont know what their future wouldve been? Its like saying before drafting Tom Brady that he would go on to become the greatest qb in the game...no one knew and if you said it at the time he was drafted everyone wouldve said you are crazy.
@@mosescharles It's not hard to assume once you know that Gus Frerotte was much more successful under the same coach and system and surrounding players than Heath Shuler. Gus Frerotte ...
Bill Tobin is what I’ve said so many times in my head. He’s a G for that.
“Who the hell is Mel Kiper”?
That Chris Mortensen laugh was everything. 😂
Awkward nervous laugh
Yes absolutely funny
Mortensen is so scared and intimidated, HILARIOUS!!!!! Tobin basically put that frightened novice in his place very quickly, and then walked off. This was obviously before the strokes and seizures for Mortensen. Very sad for him, but ESPN really needs to pull the plug on Christopher. They are allowing him to embarrass himself on national television. Not good.
"The first great armchair GM." LOL
This is an all time classic God bless them all!
Jim Harbaugh aka Captain Comeback was incredible for Colts. '94-95 Colts were one of my favorite teams. An amazing couple years, then The General #18 came to town and the rest was history.

And here we are 24 years later still saying the same....who the hell is Mel Kiper
WE are not saying that. You idiots may be tho.
Carl The One Trent won a super bowl. Say what you want but he did. With the right team, he went all the way.
@@jtfike Ray Lewis and the Raven's defense won the superbowl
@Carl The One he went to one of the worst teams in history with a terrible O line and extremely young weapons and a developing Tony Dungy. Dungys teams were trash the first few years he was in Tampa Bay, the same time Dilfer was there. Trent Dilfer as a junior in his final year was the best QB in the country, he was a franchise QB when he had a team around him and his successful years is the evidence. A ton of ppl had him pegged as the second coming, he just went to a bad program initially.
Who is brian Mcminn on youtube? I know mel kiper
Tobin had it right, "Who the hell is Mel Kiper?!!"
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥!!!
I watched this for the 1,000 time now , this never gets old
“Hello I’m Mel Kiper and I have ranked the children”
Mel Kiper said JaMarcus Russel was the best QB prospect since Elway, and Manziel should have been picked first overall in 2014.
Can someone please follow up with him on these?
@@Carl_McMelvin Except the damn owner of the Browns. For some reason he was a Haslam's favorite.
Meh. A lot of times the NFL success or failure of a QB depends on where he goes. Dilfer went to Tampa Bay, who had been awful for over a decade. He actually managed to go to the Pro Bowl and win a playoff game in '97 after the Bucs added a couple more pieces. I think Manziel is an assclown of the highest order, but I will never disparage a QB who is drafted by the Browns. What Kiper and the rest of the analysts should be doing is going a step deeper and predicting the outcome of these picks based on situation. Kyler Murray may or may not be worthy of the first pick, but he's going into a bad situation in Arizona. He'll have to start this year unless they just sacrifice a season with one of their other nobodies. He'll have to be a miracle-worker not to get destroyed. If he takes too much of that he won't recover. No one does. Then the experts will be coming back in four years calling him a bust. Meanwhile, send him to New England, and he'd be fine.
@@Carl_McMelvin Russell was a better QB prospect than Peyton Manning? That's news to me. As per usual, Kiper was all hype and hot air with a bad haircut.
This was one of the great moments in draft history, i agreed with Tobin
lol Indy was a perinial contender the minute they kicked him to the curb
He actually indirectly made them a contender, they finished 3-13 in 1997 and were able to draft Peyton Manning
Fantastic!
“Who in the fook is dat guy”
Tony C Hi Prince Devitt
I love it. Who in the hell is Mel Kiper?!!
I also had no idea who mel kiper
Best part of this whole video, is the narrator saying how much knowledge Kiper has, to immediately show clips of GMs making fun of him 🤣🤣
mel kiper is awesome him and his team do a great great job every single draft
"Who the hell is Mel Kiper?" is just as relevent today as it was in 1994. I'm sick and tired of these blowhard draft analysts. ESPN: FIRE KIPER AND SHEY and hire a former GM/head coach or two who has been responsible for actually drafting a player in their life.
janis317 yeah but who tf is Janis317?
Yes hire the men that were fired for drafting busts...
Rather see Mel as a GM so we could all get that laugh.
@@bnoone2292 Obviously no one hopes to draft busts. Did ya think that Washington drafted Dwayne Haskins just to see him be a bust? Usually it's easy to see what's produced on college football, it's hard to see attitudes and heart. Look at Tom Brady. Round 6 Pick 199? And every other QB before him went buhbye.
