The answer is and will forever be (assuming we can't say Paul Brown letting his Son inherit the team) not doing the Saints trade in order to draft Akili. There's no other possible choice....
Akili Smith
vs
1999
1st round pick (12th)
3rd round pick (71st)
4th round pick (107th)
5th round pick (144th)
6th round pick (179th)
7th round pick (218th)
2000
1st round pick (2nd)
2001
1st round pick (23rd)
2002
2nd round pick (44th)
- - - - -
2nd worst I will go with not firing Marvin after the 2013 playoff loss (and him going 0-5) and keeping Mike Zimmer by making him HC. The '14 and '15 rosters really had a shot at doing something special if they had gotten away from Marvin sooner. Still blows my mind they didn't get a single playoff win out of those rosters.
