Before you dog Elway and crown Jerry Jones as some talent scout genius, he wanted Lynch and "settled" for Prescott.  He got lucky and everyone knows it because NO ONE had Prescott going that high or performing as well as he did.  Helps when you're always handing off to a stud RB running behind the best o-line in football.

I'll give you Wilson but only because hindsight is 20/20.  At the time it did not make sense to back up Peyton Manning with a short, running, QB because that was not the offense we we're gonna have and Wilson was a gamble at best anyways.  Again, NO ONE thought he'd turn out the way he did.
