alright
awesome video keep up the good work
KTO
Ive said it before under multiple names before and you noticed. Man I love your vids, you let me know way more than I ever would or could without knowing your channel, thank you KTO. You are awesome also please do more what ifs. Those were awesome
I been using them since 2019
@@BIGJT4X well I’ve been using them since 4,000 B.C.
It’s worth mentioning that Trent Richardson is also an executive in the Mexican league and has been very helpful instrumental in getting it off the ground at all, and he left the CFL voluntarily as being in the AAF let him be closer to his young family. The guy may have been an nfl bust, but you have to credit him for not giving up and finding a way to stay involved in both football and his kids lives. Flemlo Raps has a great video on Richardson
What really hurt T-Rich is he literally never played behind a competent OL. Browns to Colts to Raiders... I mean it was just three bad run blocking OLs for a guy that needed good scheming to get him running downhill.
@@The_Diesel4 lol bullshit. Just search Trent richardson misses holes and come on back and tell me that again. He’s an awesome guy but he sucked.
@@The_Diesel4 and his family took all his money some even stole from him and he went broke within 2 years it's a shame
@@thepubknight6144 POS. Coming from being poor, that going pro with major contracts can be a nightmare.
Trent is doing a lot of good things in favor of FAM, we can't hate that guy
That Gilmore play might be one of the most clutch defensive plays ever
While it was very clutch, it’s not even the most clutch in patriots history
@@Mymainelife87 don’t say it

Honestly the thing I remember is Washington being ballsy and also drafting Kirk Cousins. Hindsight 20/20, an incredible decision considering everything
Its so ballsy and cool because it wouldnt have made any sense if Kirk Cousins didnt end up being as good as he is. They just gambled on a dude they liked, I imagine everybody mocked or at least questioned them for it, and it worked out
@@AdamKlownzinger To be fair Kirk was a great player in college and could’ve easily been picked in the 3rd round or even higher.
The funniest thing is Kirk cousins is the only winner in the RG3 trade as most of those draft picks the Texans got we’re awful picks and didn’t last long in their organization, and RG3 is infamous how he got taken… so yeah the main winner is Cousins
And uh cousins is a pretty damn good QB...just no one wants to give him credit as being such.
Cousins is consistently the most underrated player in the league
I’ll say this about Tannehill he wasn’t a bust but he bounces from average to above average for most of his career
He won with his wife 😎
@Fries I agree. Although, if Tannehill went late in the first round, a fair amount of people would consider it to be a good pick.
Prior to this season, he was a top 10 fantasy QB for 2 seasons in a row. Let’s not forget- he plays in the run-first Tennessee offense.
Also, he was a WR for his first 3 years at Texas AM. A lot of people forget that.
Oh, Morris Claiborne. I love when the Cowboys whiff on high draft picks.
Man that Gilmore pass deflection on 4th down hurts almost as much as Myles Jack being whistled down. That was a great play on a decent throw that could've been a TD with how he went for the deflection
Jags could’ve held up pretty well against the eagles too. So close.
my favorite part of the trent richardson trade, was that both teams lost the trade because the browns used the draft pick on johnny manziel
Browns will be the Browns lol
Lmfao
@@nasis18 Always will😅😂
@@Grant-co5ef I don't know which Franchise is more abysmal. The Browns, or the Lions.
The Browns can ruin a wet dream.
I hope Kuechly makes it into the Hall of Fame. On a rate basis, he's up there for most dominant ILBs ever, only held back by a shorter career, but shorter careers have still wound up in Canton.
I'll hold my breath while looking at Patrick Willis.
If he got to HOF, Kuechly definitely should too
Dude 5 first team all pros… defensive player of the year, defensive rookie of the year. in a 8 year career. He’s 100% getting in.
@@derkaiserzen Kuechly seems to rank slightly above him per Pro Football Reference. Willis was also on a stacked defense while Kuechly carried his a bit harder. Willis has come close a couple times and I really hope he gets in, and if he does Kuechly stands an extremely good chance.
I miss him so much.
@@derkaiserzenLuke getting into the hall of fame
Crazy to see youngins talking about how this is the first year they really started watching football. When they were kids. Like wtf time goes by fast
The first year I watched the packers was the year before Favre became a starter in Lambeau
My parents told me don't expect them to be good
Then I saw majikowski go n Favre come in
And I was so hyped I knew things in Wisconsin would change forever
And they did
Our state stopped being the BUTT of everyone's jokes n became the envy overnight
This envy still happens today
Time be flying, I started really watching around 07 when madden 08 came out and it’s crazy to think that was 15 years ago now
@@nautgamingnautgaming9949 lol only people who may envy the packers are y’all divide rivals cause they been trash
i’m 18 and madden 12 is the reason I fell in love w football
this season happened during my sophomore year in high school🤣 crazy thinkin it was 10 years ago
I can't believe its been 10 years already. Aww the year/era when i started watching football more hardcore
Same here
same here. started watching in 2010 but this was the year I didn't miss a game
Same this takes me back
@@R-YR29 it was way better in the early 2000’s
Hard-core was the 90's
Kuechly and Wagner were on a different level during the mid 2010’s. I remember Kuechly being a beast whenever someone would user him in madden.
4:40 well then again that first round draft pick was Jonny Manziel
2023: 10 years ago draft is gonna be miserable
If Calvin Johnson made the Hall of Fame having played nine seasons, Kuechly will make it. Their short careers were NOT short on Hall of Fame-level production.
There are players making it because they played fifteen years but had a couple of elite seasons, guys who played 8/9 years but were elite almost their entire career should always be locks imo.
Calvin Johnson is also in my opinion the most talented wr to ever play
There was a RB that made the HOF only playing 4 seasons. Can’t remember his name.
@@bostonk.o. Marion Motley has the fewest NFL seasons played to make the HoF at five, but like several of his Cleveland teammates who also made it they carried over a lot of success from their AAFC playing.
@@ferratorr1033 it was a WR named Mac Speedie and he only played 3 seasons
This was the first NFL draft I really got into as a young Vikings fan. This video brought back a ton of memories! Great content!
Boo Vikings
No offense
@@lO_-_Ol good luck with Sammy Watkins and treylon burks
@@lO_-_Ol thanks for taking Sammy off our hands lmfao
@@iliketurtles7782 treylon Burks plays for Tennessee
Trent Richardson is a glaring example of what happens when you listen to stats without the context. Richardsons stats were gaudy. But, was he REALLY going to be able to use that strength to run over and through NFL linebackers the way he could in college?
I thought he was the next Adrian Peterson
The guy had no vision
He had no vision and zero breakaway speed. Was always running into blockers.
There is really only one way to find out
"TOUCHDOWN,...... Washington Redskins" Best call in all of NFL history (I'm a DAWG!, still love it!).
If one player still playing from this draft class is surprising, I might say Tannehill
This series is great, love the content keep it up
Man keep this videos coming! I have learned so much about sports from your videos.
Literally this and the top 10 recruits videos are my most anticipated of each year
Luke Kuechly was from my hometown of Cincinnati and I got to seen him play in high school and he was ten times better than the competition. That’s when I knew he was the real deal
im from dc but i remember how good he was for st x
Go Bombers!
Man RG3 will always be one of the biggest what ifs to me in NFL history. That rookie season he had was incredible, it is a damn shame he got hurt and then the Redskins throw him out there and gets hurt again, always makes me wonder how his career would’ve turned out if Washington didn’t draft him.
Similarly. It's not like you become more prone to injuries when you wear a Redskins jersey.
What if he drank more milk? Now that's a what-if scenario.
@@encycl07pedia- Redskins *MISMANAGED* his career.... there was absolutely no reason u risk ur franchise guy the way they rushed him back out there
@@diabolivirtusen-tavares-ea4645 You mean don't use a dual-threat running QB as a runner? You're such a big brain.
Seeing Kuechly retire was sad but I am really happy he made that decision to protect his own brain. He is by far one of the greatest modern linebackers and the guy is a borderline football genius. I hope he becomes an analyst of some sort because his abilities were truly special. Hes one of those guys that makes a play and you think, "why cant we get guys like that"
He going into the hall of fame
I love ur videos, the best part is the end moment, KEEP IT UP!
Yo KTO, you should make a throwback What if video. They used to be my favorite videos on your channel. Regardless, keep up the good work!
I wait 10 years for these vids!! Thanks KTO
Always awesome when KTO uploads
Thank you for the content
These videos are so good. Can't get enough KTO vids!
Kuechly was SO special. One of the most talented LBs I’ve ever seen. So sad what happened to his career
He still going into the hall of fame
@@antoniohoward981 for sure. Well deserved
@@itscole83 he sho did put in that work
Love your content Brodie
Some of my favorite videos every year 🐐
Youre videos are always great overall, but your endings are fire
I love these types of videos blasts from the past
Always makes me happy when i see a kto video
2012 was my first year watching football and I remember RG3 and Luck were absolute rockstars. Crazy it’s been 10 years
Blackmon will forever be one of the great mysteries to me in NFL history. He certainly looked the part when he was on the field talent wise. And I think he's a great example why Jacksonville has struggled so much in our era. All the talent in the world doesn't mean a thing if he cant stay on the field. For awhile, I truly feared the worst for him because the only stories you'd hear was "last seen a bar in x state x months ago and not seen since."" And I mean that not as a sports fan but as a human being concerned about another.
I love your content, keep it up ❤️
Idc what the topic is I will always watch for your outros 🔥
I love mark barron playstyle, watched highlights of him a couple years ago and changed my hs number to 26 cuz of him
You get burned a lot?
I wish somebody would pick him up
Rg3 was the qb washington has had in the last 20 years but injuries ruined him
Injuries didn’t ruin him, Washington ruined him with injuries because they got the best QB and couldn’t protect him…. It’s like having a baby and then driving him into wrecks without a car seat. He had no protection and kept getting hurt. If he would’ve played for a team with defense, he’d still be in the NFL.
@@BoneyRasputin yup
As a cowboys fan I don’t really see mo claiborne as a “bust”. When he was on the field, we all saw why he was taken 7th overall. He just couldn’t stay healthy. A bust is a person who never shows what their capable of in the nfl in my opinion
Is you drunk? As a cowboys fan any cowboys fan know when you think of mo claiborne the first word tht comes up is bust wtf 😂
@@GOATSO99 that dudes an idiot lol mo was a bust with a few bright spots And I mean a very few 😂
He was not good till 2016 but got hurt again he’s a bust no question
Love your videos 🙏🏾
Always a good day when KTO posts
KTO! KTO! KTO! One of the best in the game and one of my favorite CZcamsrs. Haven't seen a video I didn't like, keep up the great work my brother👊
Kuechly was a physical monster but his best trait was his knowledge of the game and film study. Incredibly smart guy. He will make a great coach one day if he wishes to write it in stone. TO THE LAST CLIP THOUGH MJWD
Dang not even a Panthers fan but I miss Kuechly on the field. Seeing him in action was art. Best of luck to him in his post NFL career
God I miss Luke Kuechly. We didn't deserve him. He was so good.
I used to watch this guy in 2017-2019 all the time, awesome to see he’s still making quality stuff
Great video thanks- Motell
I still remember Blackmon VS NEB, ON a Flea Flicker Prince Amukamara doing everything he could to PI Blackmon to sop the elevatable 50+ yard TD and Amukamara played a Decade in the NFL
Browns definitely lost that trade for Trent Richardson. I know he didn’t do great on the colts, but the pick the colts traded ended up being used on Johnny Manziel who had an arguably worse career than Richardson.
Arguably worse?
@@Shamwowzable they both were at the low end of their respective positions. Obviously Manziel had the bigger fallout but that comes with the qb position
Both had terrible careers no winners
Johnny Manziel was exciting. Trent Richardson was a blob. Guarantee you more people went to see Manziel for the Browns than TR.
Nah Browns won the trade but wasted the pick
I get chills every time I hear the song at the end of your videos
Did anyone else find it funny that a Kings fan was ringing up a purchase for Browns gear? I know KTO lives in Sacramento and all, but still, you forget these teams have fanbases given their struggles. Great video as always.
It's so crazy how I vividly remember this draft.
I always forget Stephon Gillmore was in the 2012 draft, let alone in the top 10. I remember watching that play in the AFC Championship and thinking holy shit that was insane
nice vid my guy
Big time hype for this!
That old skool Halloween music at the end. Nice
I’ve met RG3 in person, super chill dude and me and my friend got a picture.
New England has had some phenomenal corners over the years but man I miss Gilmore. Glad to have Butler back but idk what to expect from him now. JC is a beast too. Wish we kept him.
Trent Richardson’s college highlights are ridiculous. I remember following his high school career after he committed to Alabama. Almost everyone thought he should’ve been a top 15 pick. No one could tackle that dude.
Ryan Tannehill is so underrated and hated, people should respect him more.
Probably the biggest "what if" class in NFL history
Half empty glass is the phrase I use the most for this class. Lots of talent that did shine through but not for long.
RG3 was to me like luck but slightly worse since his injuries sapped his skills more and had a shorter peak.
A waaaay shorter peak.
Hey KTO, I know you don’t do the types of videos I’m suggesting, but could you show us your own personal mock draft for this year??
This top 10 is going to be remembered for young talent who had injuries and off the field issues end promising careers.luck rg3 both should have been long term luke was so good just retired earlier than ud like for a hof case and Blackmon was good just couldn't stop drinking etc
Only kuechly and Gilmore fulfilled their potential in terms of stats and success. But even at that I doubt they’ll go to the hall of fame.
Luke Kuechley’s retirement felt abrupt, but considering he played 8 years and made 7 pro bowls when the average career is 3-4, he had a full career. He went out while he was still on top
I get chills at the end of every single kto video
You love the porn music. A man of culture.
@@helloman3676 you’re watching some weird porn
Two of the best quarterback prospects of all time (John Elway, Andrew Luck) went to Stanford. 😏
@Peters6221 Yep!
Love your vids Brodie
When I find out KTO has a new video out I get happy
Thanks KTO
I watch a lot of sports channels, but I always watch and rewatch KTO because we can commiserate as Browns fans
0:16 Man, if there’s anybody who can eat that hit like it was nothing, it’s Steve Smith. Toughest dude I’ve ever seen play receiver.
You’re a CZcams legend
I was sitting here thinking "how can you NOT show that play against the Jaguars for Gilmore?" Well played
11:30 ehhhhhhh, I don’t know about that one chief. Sure, he was god awful during the playoffs, but at the very least, that team definitely wasn’t held back by him specifically. He’s one of those players that you won’t be able to judge the level of his play by just looking at his stats. He’s by no means elite, but he certainly isn’t holding his team back, either.
KTO day is a good day. Especially when it's early morning (here in Sydney)
--- while that would be the end of mu usual commenting, gotta say:
FlemoLo did an awesome piece on Blackmon. Personally, Oklahoma State, Jax Jags -- had no relation to me a 49ers fan and just general NCAAF, but the way he played, size, presence and confidence, I was quite excited. -- while I read Julio and Megatron comparisons, I really believed we should some kind of hybrid(?) variation (?) Oof Terrell Owens, a bit of a Fitz lite with some pretty catches with those hands. Yeah, he was gonna need some guidance and mentorship as a human being -- can't remember if Jax brought in any veteran to do that. Well, obviously, didnt work out. But also, while such off the field issues it's easy to blame the player directly (and usually not exactly an incorrect answer), FlemoLo laid it pretty well -- he can't be expected to shoulder all the blame. Never really had someone to get him going along properly. People probably took advantage of his athletic prowess left and right. Those types never really go THAT big, but seeing as this a very rare, top 5 WR pick, also indicates how special he actually one. Yeah, we have what could've been every single, but I remember this one stinging even more than before after watching his story after "cue the Wayne".
A New Sponsor!
Best outro song in all of CZcams.
1:48 RGIII didn’t retire, he’s just a free agent. Still a great video!
He did. He's a college football color commentator for ESPN
he done
let's go new kto vid
Hey KTO, doubt you’ll see this but every consider a video on worst draft day trade? I feel like that would be interesting to see who went where and who had a better career
Man, I remember thinking so many of these guys were gonna be studs coming out of this draft.
This video just shows how short many pro careers are.
We gave up a lot of picks for RG3,(we literally didn’t have a 1st round pick for years!) but the fact that we also drafted Cousins later on in the draft says a lot (he also owns a lot of Redskin records and is STILL PLAYING 🤣)
Nice vid
W KTO video as always
you should make a video abt the 2014 college football season
Can't wait for the 2013 version of this
Luke Kuechly is one of the best defenders I’ve watched, started watching and paying attention to football in the early 2010’s so I’ve been watching for a good 11-12 years
Hello from Greece !!
In 1 year we get to see KTO review the top 10 of 2013. That one will make 2012 shine in comparison.
2:45 That’s a number to start getting very skeptical at
Blackmon coulda done so much in the league, sucks how it all went down for him.
Yeah he showed some flashes. He had that huge 240 yard game. He just couldn't put the sauce down.
You make it seem like it wasn't his fault, like he had injuries or something. His downfall was his own fault.
@@encycl07pedia- didn’t mean to come across that way at all, his problem was definitely his choice to control. Just a what if I always thought of, same with Josh Gordon to a certain degree.
@@darieljavier5560
Thank you for clarifying.
It read to me as the difference between "the ball was dropped" and "the WR dropped the ball." One is neutral, the other assigns responsibility to the WR.
Andrew luck was a bittersweet career. He had some great highs and a lot of potential but he retired early due to injury and lack of passion for the game.
You got it wrong, he has so much passion for the game that he battle injuries left and right until he has to make a choice of having a decent life or go cripple. Colts destroy this dude.
Nobody's fault but the Colts front office.
You should do a video on Hunter Renfrow.
That Gilmore outro gave me goosebumps
