NFL Biggest Draft Misses

Can you name the biggest draft mistakes teams have made since 2000? These are based on need or magnitude. If a first round tackle with a 2 year career went before a 5x All-Pro safety, that wouldn't be as bad, because safety was not a concern for the team that year. But if a QB with a 3 year career goes before a QB with 12 Pro Bowls, that'll be on here. Also, if it's 5th round and later, anything's game. Teams should be drafting for talent at that point, not need.
