    I often wonder if the Panthers would've gotten a ring with Eddie George instead of that sack of ? Timmy.

    Peter Warwick
    Stromile Swift

    And Lavar Arrington is not a bust. he had a pretty solid career and Laron Landry is treading on loose rubber. Ever since Sean was killed he is being exposed.

    I just thought Peter Warrick was going to dominate. I just knew he was gonna dominate for the Bengals. What a shame.

    Bush Technically isn't a Bust Because he contributes , But After winning the Heisman, Being Compared to Gayle Sayers Countless times coming out of College, Being Labeled as the "Next RB to be a All-Time Great" , Mario Williams Being ? on By Everyone and there Mother because he went ahead of Bush , and Bush Being Third String behind Two RunningBacks Who Weren't even Drafted

    Im'a Have to say That ? ..


    Chris Johnson is What Everyone Thought Reggie Bush would be..

    Matt Leinart- its easy to look good when you got the best skills position players all over the field

    Maurice Clarett- wait does he count...eh self explanatory

    JaMarcus Russell- He was my boy at LSU because I'm a fan, but he had terrible work ethic off the field and got by in college on arm strength and raw talent. It didn't hurt to have some damn good receivers either though. When the Raiders drafted him I was like yea he will probably get cut or traded in a few years. I was dead on. Great talent but no mental drive or intrinsic motivation to get better. You can't get by on raw talent on the pro level.

    Ryan Leaf- I wonder what would have happened if the Chargers would have drafted Manning. Manning has a ring and another appearance heck I don't even think Leaf is even in the league anymore. The dude was ass on the field then he had an ass attitude to go along with it. I didn't see it coming before the draft, but it became apparent quickly.


    Threadstarter I don't think McFadden is a bust. Way too early to tell on that.

    Yea i Cant Count Maurice Clarrett , Played One Year of College, Was Drafted In the 3rd Round When he was Finally able to be drafted...

    No One Really Had any Super High Expectations for him at that point.
