Michael Vick?????????? You can't be LESS of a steal. HE WAS THE #1 PICK. How about Terrell Davis, and Tom Brady. Both were taken in the 6th round. Antonio Gates was definitely a steal, but also remember, he was a COLLEGE BASKETBALL PLAYER, NOT FOOTBALL. So the Chargers got a little luck with that one too. I didn't realize that Johnny U was a 9th rounder. What a steal with that one!

New England Patriots - Tom Brady (Round 6, Pick 199, 2000)
If you don't know this story you must've been in an Afghani cave for the past five years.
San Francisco 49ers - Charles Haley (Rd. 4, Pk. 96, 1986)
San Fran had one of the best drafts ever in 1986, without a No. 1 pick no less. They scored Tom Rathman (56th), Tim McKyer (64th), John Taylor (76th), Haley (96th) and Kevin Fagan (102nd).
Chicago Bears - Richard Dent (Rd. 8, Pk. 203, 1983)
The MVP of Super Bowl XX, Dent finished his career with 137.5 sacks and was one of the best pass rushers ever.

Ask this question in 20 years and every person in the world will say the Saints getting Reggie Bush when he is a Hall of Famer and they speak of how stupid the Texans were for taking Mario Williams who turned out to be a completely average defensive end.

Tom Brady no question. A 6th round pick turning into a dynasty leading QB.

I don't know about a steal. But...San Diego passing up Vick and getting Tomlinson and Brees was amazing. Verdict is still out on Vick.
