Brian Bosworth wasnt a bust at all he had a great career its ashamed that people define him a bust do to 1 play that everyone remembers him for when Bo Jackson ran him over Tony wasnt one either he had a good career and Russel should definitly be on this
Ryan Leaf's career statistics and Heath Shuler's career statistics are scary similar. Leaf manages to be worse in every major statistical category though. But it really is close. Shuler should be on the list if Leaf is #1.
i'm a Redskins fan and i think you forgot about Heath Shuler. he was a bigger bust than Leaf was, i think. at least Leaf was an arrogant asshole. Shuler wasn't even that!!! lol
@brianintn I don't know that Heath Shuler was a bust. The Redskins just found a solid 7th rounder that outperformed most other QBs in that draft period. Heath was just unfortunate enough to be on the same team as Ferroette..
@MisterABCGames yeah, but look at what happened the 2 years before Ferotte was named starter. Shuler was creamed all over the field. he never was as good as he was at UT.
you really need to update and research the video. Not that you had bad choices, don't get me wrong. But JaMarcus Russell has by far replaced Ryan Leaf as the all time biggest bust in NFL history. Other dishonorable mentions: Todd Marinovich, QB Raiders, Bruce Pickens, CB Falcons, David Klingler, QB Bengals, Greg Bell, RB Bills, and Charles Rogers, WR Lions.
I'm glad Tim Couch is not on this list. If you actually go back and look at the stats, he put up solid numbers, despite being on a HORRIBLE team and having no talent to work with.
Ryan Leaf will remain the biggest bust ever...He was more highly touted than Russel was National Championship or not...O and i am a Die hard PSU guy so yeah Kijana "Fuckin" Carter was a huge bust for me also...but not Kerry!!
Akili Smith failed to become a starter in the WLAF, got released by a UFL team, and was cut before mini camp ended by and Arena League team. Oh way, Tried to get a try out with Toronto of the CFL when they had three quarterbacks go down with injury, and was told thanks but no thanks.
@quietriotfan1976 i understand all that but i honstally belive if akili and ALOT of busts at the QB postion were put in the right situation right coaches they would of flourished. call me crazy but i honstally dont belive that even peyton manning could of helped that sorry exuse of a team at that time " lol on second thought nvm that manning comment" but really players like Leaf, tim couch, and akili never had crap and by time they left had no confindence or was too beat up to play
Leaf admittedly didn't have the passion to play the game on the professional level. Smith, Russell and Couch were all good college quarterbacks. Just because you're a good qb in college, doesn't mean you're going to be good in the pros.
@quietriotfan1976 i guess your right but i would like to see what some of these people can/could of done in a more structured environment. people like russell and leaf were bonafied bums but i thought tim couch and akili smith woulda been something special couch went to bacally a team of walk on free agents and akili.........went to the bengals... from the 90s to 2 like mid 00s that must of been the WORST franchise as far as developing players went
@quietriotfan1976 Smith was on the bengals which was a death sentence basically, but i also think he needed to be in a system made for him. Russel straight up just got lazy. He showed in his first year and part of his second he could be good in the NFL, but he got fat and lazy. Out of shape, didn't work on mechanics, his accuracy went to hell. Russell's failure was thru his own fault. Oakland wasn't a good team, but he could have done better.
I still stand by my statement that Smith was a system quarterback. The Colts were a terrible team when Peyton got there, and they improved. Just because a QB goes to a bad team doesn't mean its a death sentence. Besides, Smith isn't the first Oregon quarterback to fizzle out on the pro level, Danny O'Niel, Bill Musgrave where all NFL calibur talents that just couldn't get it going. Although Musgrave has turned out to be a quality coach.
I know some super sluts that got beat up by Lawrence Phillips when he was in Frisco...He is a super dick.... And missing that block in ST loius retired Steve Young a year or 2 early...
@monsterjamfan123 Yeah but he has matured now. Fisher is just trying to make it seems as if young acted immature this season when he hasn't. He stood up for himself and I'm glad. He was tired of Fisher's bullshit. Fisher purposely didn't put him back in because he doesn't like him. Young has been mature since the 08 disaster.
THERE IS NO FACTS IN THEIS POSTING, MOST OF THESE GUYS PLAYED UNDER EXPECTATION BUT WASN'T A BUST. PLEASE DO YOU HOMEWORK NEXT TIME !!!!!!! BY THE WAY DEMARCUS RUSSULLE SHOULD BE TOP 3 MIN...
@Reddieize A couple things. First of all, he wasn't on the Colts Super Bowl team. He has no rings. He retired in '98. Secondly, I'm a Packer fan. I remember we passed up Derrick Thomas and Barry Sanders for him, and he SUCKED. He was a 'roided out, no talent such and such. Yes, he was one of the biggest busts of all time.
Tony Mandarich played in 86 NFL games (6 seasons total).
I am not saying in any way shape or form the guy was not a bust -- but #2 of all-time is just simply not true. He had way too much hype - he just was never the best OL ever.
After 5 years out of the NFL he came back to play (pretty decent football) for 3 years. Update this thing, because Jamarcus Russell needs to be #1.
only thing I agree with is Ryan Leaf. Definitely the biggest bust!! So much potential and does absolutely nothing with it!! At least Russel wasn't a head case!! Russel just couldn't adapt to the professional level!
Bro this list sucks! BOZ and MAND were not busts ,they both had a good season becuz they were on ROIDS then they stoped the ROIDS and they sucked. A BUST is when a player comes in the league and does absolutely )0( !! NOTHING! You might want to refine your list and next time put players like peyton manning or tom brady becuz your list sucks,. Your an IDIOT, but you got me to watch this fuckin shitpiece you wasted your life editing so you did somthin right!!! What an ASSHOLE!!!
Bosworth wasn't a bust. Everyone forgets he was a supplemental draft pick. But the hype surrounding him made fans percieve him to be a bust. Now nobody cares who gets selected in the supplemental draft and some people probably don't know that there is one.
Tony Mandarich shoulda been number 1. The picks before and after him had names like Aikman, Barry Sanders, Dieon Sanders. This pick caused the team to enter a state of mediocrity for roughly 15 years
While this is your list and all, that's dandy, simply listing people who think are busts does nothing for the viewer. If someone watching has no idea who Brian Bosworth is, they nave no contextual basis for accepting your opinion. Lists like these require more than just saying names of busts. You need to give reasons WHY they are busts. Without it, no one will care making this an exercise in futility. Have a nice day.
Why does a player get labelled a bust if he got hurt playing? Steve Emtman played well till he blew out both his knees. Bosworth's body came unravelled like a K mart sweater. Other than that he played three good seasons in Seattle. So why is it they get labelled busts when they got hurt playing?
Fuckin Leaf"' Dont talk to me alright quit it ''Chargers should retire that number 16 because he sucked soooo bad you dont want to see anyone wear that 16
bosworth was acctualy a sick player its just there was such hype that he would have needed to be dick butkus and lawrence taylor just to satisfy seattle and then would have needed to rewrite all the record books to have them give him any credit as a good player
@capsdude8 So because you have his jersey, and despite the fact that he crumbled against the one pro style defense he ever faced, that's grounds for assuming he's going to be the next Peyton Manning? Grow up would you please?
@Dogfacesoulja8582 just a thug fellow lets come down now and yes he was a bust but was the best thing for the Rams. Marshal Faulk wouldnt be there if phipps wasnt a bust
How's Jamal Anderson a bust? Do you even know what is a bust?? Jamal Anderson was drafted in the 7th round. He made the pro-bowl, helped his team earn a superbowl birth, and had nearly 2,000 yds rushing in '98.
Actually, that is exactly what a first round draft bust is. When you draft i the first round, you want a player who's going to be a solid starter/contributor for atleast 8-10 years. Huff hasn't been that for Oakland.
lawrence phillips has to be a bigger bust than leaf. watching highlights of him, you will see THE best running back you have ever seen. fastest guy on the field, strong, elusive, if he wouldve had the right attitude, he would've been the best running back in the nfl. such a waste of talent and its a shame
you're kidding right? ryan leaf took washington state to their first pac 10 title and ended a god knows how long rose bowl drought. the chargers traded a 3 time pro bowl wide receiver, 2 first round picks, a second round pick and a linebacker to move up from the 3rd overall pick to the second and you're saying that leaf isn't the biggest bust ever? lol
@TheCompulsionToKill, haha. You actually think J. Russell is going to get any better? J.R. thinks going for 11/30, 85 yds and 2 ints. is considered a decent game. With an attitude like that, do you think he can achieve anything great??
actually no i dont think hell improve. i just said he wasnt fully adjusted to the nfl yet (clearly) but still ppl were saying he is the number one worst bust over RYAN FUCKING LEAF
@KissMyAssSon how is he the biggest bust? leaf has way worse stats than him and a worse record, yes russell did pretty bad, but he showed that he has some talent and hes only 23 years old, still has plenty of time to prove himself else where
My Top 10 Draft Busts 1. Ryan Leaf 2. Tim Couch 3. Matt Jones 4. Tony Mandarich 5. Brian Bosworth 6. Rocky Calmus 7. David Klingler 8. Ron Dayne 9. Akili Smith 10. Jamarcus Russell
LOL, how do you figure Rocky Calmus?? Goddam 3rd rounder. And Bosworth WAS a good linebacker until injury got him....how can you put him in the same category as the rest of these ya-hoos?
busts are high draft picks, if it weren't, there would be so many busts. replace calmus and russell with heath shuler and todd marinovich. leaf, shuler and marinovich are possibly the 3 biggest qb busts.
I really don't agree with your call on Tim Couch. I think he was just in the wrong place at the wrong time (behind a terrible offensive line). Because of this he dealt with constant injuries (broken leg, shoulder injury, etc.) and was never really given a chance to get his job back. Matt Jones can't really be considered a bust because he should have never been drafted that high.
I wouldn't really consider Ron Dayne a top 10 bust- he was a great disappointment but was somewhat productive. Heck, he's played in the NFL for 7 seasons and had to share a backfield with Tiki Barber for the beginning of his career. Jamarcus Russell hasn't looked very good at all so far, but his career is still young. If you want to talk about adding busts on your list because of injuries how could you not put Curtis Enis on your top 10?
Have you ever actually WATCHED bosworth play? I mean not just at OU, but his 3 seasons with Seattle? The man could PLAY! I mean a ROOKIE, fresh outa college, STARTING middle linebacker (QB of the defense) and playing as well as he did? Come'on! So he was a cocksucker nobody could stand...doesnt mean he should be placed in the same category as Akili Smith and Ryan Leaf or Mandarich (all cocksuckers who COULDNT play)
busts are not just people who sucked, but also people with maturity issues, off the field problems and being injury plagued. pacman jones was damn good but he's considered a bust.
with all the hype, I have to say Reggie Bush is also in there. Give it a couple of years and that should be confirmed. Great in college, but not much of a deal in the NFL.
reggie bush isn't a bust. he's productive in the nfl, but he definitely is a disappointment. and to be fair, the saints are using him completely wrong, he needs to be used like chris johnson to succeed.
he was the number 1 pick. but he wanted to play baseball. he was redrafted in the 7th. Best athelete, ever. Ridiculous combination of strength and speed - the fastest 40 time ever recorded.
yeah, hardly a bust, like those phony juice heads bosworth and mandarich.
andre ware, todd marinavich, hershel walker even though he had a nfl career he was supposed to be walter payton, rashan salaam, kijana carter, blair thomas, eric bienemy, most receivers that went to detroit especially that dude from usc think his name is mike johnson
Lawrence Phillips in my opinion wasnt a bust. He actually did good in the NFL. He just got into too much trouble off the field. and in my book that dont make you a bust
hmm... let's see, he led the Saints 2 a NFC Championship game in his rookie season, came 2nd in Rookie of the year voting, & helping 4 good causes in New Orleans= Not a bust. and, 4 great quarterbacks from USC in a row, Carson Palmer, Matt Leinart, John David Booty, & now Mark Sanchez, with Palmer getting his jersey retired & winning a heisman along w/ Reggie Bush & Matt Leinart & the most BCS National Championships in NCAA history: USC isn't overrated
USC claims 7 National Championships while University of Michigan claims 13 and Alabama is 2nd by claiming 12 lat time i check if my math is right: 13>7 am i right?. Leinart is on the sideline now...John David Booty is a 4th string QB...Palmer is the only person you said that is doing something after USC
USC has 11 national championships, 7 heisman winners, made Carson Palmer OJ Simpson, Marcus Allen, & soon 2 b great Mark Sanchez.... now is THAT overrated?
LMFAO.......now Reggie "led" the Saints to a NFC Championship game....LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLLOLOLOLOL oh god I have to breath..WHEW!.....AHhhaHAHAHAahhahaHAHAHAHAAHAHHAHAAHHAAHhhaHAHAHAahhahaHAHAHAHAAHAHHAHAAHHAAHhhaHAHAHAahhahaHAHAHAHAAHAHHAHAAHHA
Oh man you kill me.. Whew seriously. Bush didn't "lead" anybody anywhere....he was just along for the ride, my god there's a ton of fools who post on here. lol
he didint lead them. but he was a huge part of it. he ay not be the best running back. but hes a solid player. hes got great hands great speed. and when hes in open space, forget about it.
uhhh do u watch the saints? he returned two punts in one game for tds. he made a clutch td catch vs the bears in the 06 nfc champion ship hen the game was still close. he was leading the league in receptions at some point last season. again ppl exetced this amazing running back. but hes still a good player. hes well rounded. and that t flip against the steelers. and look at his highights. hes good on outside runs.
Wow you named 3 games. He's been in the league how long? Last year he had 800 yards combined rushing and receiving. Thats not very good. He did have 52 catches but he averaged 8 yards a catch. Not very good. 400 yards rushing last year. Awful for the #2 pick in the draft. He's an average player at best.
um he was hurt. and 8 yards a catch for a rb. that is good. rushing hes nvr guna be what was expected but hes good with everything else. hes ood outside runner. and his only problem with inide running is he is always looking for the bigplay. but b4 he got hurt he was doing good running. he had impoved alot. but hes not avrage. hes too explosive for average.
You my friend, know what you're talking about....he's electric....he may have been drafted too early, but he does make things happen...he' not a bust, unlike Rashan Salaam, curtis Ennis, Ki jana Carter, Eric Rhett.
i disagree with the boz. it was just unrealistic to live up to all the hype. he would have had to have been dick butkis from day 1. he wasn't terrible, his body just broke down on him.
and mandarich was ok as a colt. his body broke down as well. in green bay certainly because he was a drug addict addicted to pain killers.
minus the talent and defensive strategy and brains. His presence was more due to his obvious craziness. For all the shit Boz talked, he was pretty much a bust.
hahaha lmao at this song, cause these guys sucked!!!

Nice try, but the list should have Johnny "Lam" Jones, Blair Thomas, Tim Couch, Mike Williams, Michael Huff,,,
Mandrich should be number one, bar none. Also, can't forget Trev Alberts.
quietriotfan1976 2 years ago
michael huff isnt a bust he just didnt fully live up to first rnd potential. more like 5th or 6th rnd potential
TheCompulsionToKill 2 years ago
Actually, that is exactly what a first round draft bust is. When you draft i the first round, you want a player who's going to be a solid starter/contributor for atleast 8-10 years. Huff hasn't been that for Oakland.
quietriotfan1976 2 years ago
well lets be honest it is a typical raiders move to draft a player in the 1st rnd who should be drafted 2 or 3 rnds lower
TheCompulsionToKill 2 years ago
I'll give you that, who else would select a place kicker in the first round....other then the Raiders and Saints.
quietriotfan1976 2 years ago
exactly, just makes u wonder who they'll take too early this year
TheCompulsionToKill 2 years ago
lawrence phillips has to be a bigger bust than leaf. watching highlights of him, you will see THE best running back you have ever seen. fastest guy on the field, strong, elusive, if he wouldve had the right attitude, he would've been the best running back in the nfl. such a waste of talent and its a shame
ryanbball 2 years ago
you're kidding right? ryan leaf took washington state to their first pac 10 title and ended a god knows how long rose bowl drought. the chargers traded a 3 time pro bowl wide receiver, 2 first round picks, a second round pick and a linebacker to move up from the 3rd overall pick to the second and you're saying that leaf isn't the biggest bust ever? lol
douchiedude 2 years ago
Jamarcus Russell is the biggest bust.

@TheCompulsionToKill, haha. You actually think J. Russell is going to get any better? J.R. thinks going for 11/30, 85 yds and 2 ints. is considered a decent game. With an attitude like that, do you think he can achieve anything great??
KissMyAssSon 2 years ago
actually no i dont think hell improve. i just said he wasnt fully adjusted to the nfl yet (clearly) but still ppl were saying he is the number one worst bust over RYAN FUCKING LEAF
TheCompulsionToKill 2 years ago
absolutely not, there are so many bigger busts than russell, he's just the biggest since 2000.
douchiedude 2 years ago
@KissMyAssSon how is he the biggest bust? leaf has way worse stats than him and a worse record, yes russell did pretty bad, but he showed that he has some talent and hes only 23 years old, still has plenty of time to prove himself else where

LOL, how do you figure Rocky Calmus?? Goddam 3rd rounder. And Bosworth WAS a good linebacker until injury got him....how can you put him in the same category as the rest of these ya-hoos?
takedown998 2 years ago
Rocky Calmus may not have been a high draft pick, but he had the drive and the intangibles to succeed at the NFL level, and he didn't. That's why
DJprofessork72 2 years ago
busts are high draft picks, if it weren't, there would be so many busts. replace calmus and russell with heath shuler and todd marinovich. leaf, shuler and marinovich are possibly the 3 biggest qb busts.
douchiedude 2 years ago
Good call on the QB busts. What about Dan McGwire? Does Todd Blackledge make the list?
rickman33 2 years ago
I really don't agree with your call on Tim Couch. I think he was just in the wrong place at the wrong time (behind a terrible offensive line). Because of this he dealt with constant injuries (broken leg, shoulder injury, etc.) and was never really given a chance to get his job back. Matt Jones can't really be considered a bust because he should have never been drafted that high.
rickman33 2 years ago
I wouldn't really consider Ron Dayne a top 10 bust- he was a great disappointment but was somewhat productive. Heck, he's played in the NFL for 7 seasons and had to share a backfield with Tiki Barber for the beginning of his career. Jamarcus Russell hasn't looked very good at all so far, but his career is still young. If you want to talk about adding busts on your list because of injuries how could you not put Curtis Enis on your top 10?
rickman33 2 years ago
my biggest busts ever
1. Ryan Leaf.. 2. Charles Rodgers.. 3. Tim Couch... 4... Tony Manderich.. 5. yo mama
NobelBryceWinner84 2 years ago
Have you ever actually WATCHED bosworth play? I mean not just at OU, but his 3 seasons with Seattle? The man could PLAY! I mean a ROOKIE, fresh outa college, STARTING middle linebacker (QB of the defense) and playing as well as he did? Come'on! So he was a cocksucker nobody could stand...doesnt mean he should be placed in the same category as Akili Smith and Ryan Leaf or Mandarich (all cocksuckers who COULDNT play)
takedown998 2 years ago
bosworth was a great player... but he was just such a hothead... and it affected his play... kinda like ryan leaf
tweakrenegade 2 years ago
agreed, the only reason he is a bust is because of the injuries, not his talent.
DJprofessork72 2 years ago
busts are not just people who sucked, but also people with maturity issues, off the field problems and being injury plagued. pacman jones was damn good but he's considered a bust.

reggie bush isn't a bust. he's productive in the nfl, but he definitely is a disappointment. and to be fair, the saints are using him completely wrong, he needs to be used like chris johnson to succeed.

ERAProductionsinc 2 years ago
418 carries, 1550 yards, 3.7 yd/avg., and 12 TD in 3 seasons is a bust in my book...and USC is overrated
OcSlayer45 2 years ago
hmm... let's see, he led the Saints 2 a NFC Championship game in his rookie season, came 2nd in Rookie of the year voting, & helping 4 good causes in New Orleans= Not a bust. and, 4 great quarterbacks from USC in a row, Carson Palmer, Matt Leinart, John David Booty, & now Mark Sanchez, with Palmer getting his jersey retired & winning a heisman along w/ Reggie Bush & Matt Leinart & the most BCS National Championships in NCAA history: USC isn't overrated
ERAProductionsinc 2 years ago
USC claims 7 National Championships while University of Michigan claims 13 and Alabama is 2nd by claiming 12 lat time i check if my math is right: 13>7 am i right?. Leinart is on the sideline now...John David Booty is a 4th string QB...Palmer is the only person you said that is doing something after USC
OcSlayer45 2 years ago
USC has 11 national championships, 7 heisman winners, made Carson Palmer OJ Simpson, Marcus Allen, & soon 2 b great Mark Sanchez.... now is THAT overrated?

He hasn't done much in the NFL. Even when he gets in open space.
matt103454 2 years ago
uhhh do u watch the saints? he returned two punts in one game for tds. he made a clutch td catch vs the bears in the 06 nfc champion ship hen the game was still close. he was leading the league in receptions at some point last season. again ppl exetced this amazing running back. but hes still a good player. hes well rounded. and that t flip against the steelers. and look at his highights. hes good on outside runs.
Macaveliyproductions 2 years ago
Wow you named 3 games. He's been in the league how long? Last year he had 800 yards combined rushing and receiving. Thats not very good. He did have 52 catches but he averaged 8 yards a catch. Not very good. 400 yards rushing last year. Awful for the #2 pick in the draft. He's an average player at best.
matt103454 2 years ago
um he was hurt. and 8 yards a catch for a rb. that is good. rushing hes nvr guna be what was expected but hes good with everything else. hes ood outside runner. and his only problem with inide running is he is always looking for the bigplay. but b4 he got hurt he was doing good running. he had impoved alot. but hes not avrage. hes too explosive for average.
Macaveliyproductions 2 years ago
You my friend, know what you're talking about....he's electric....he may have been drafted too early, but he does make things happen...he' not a bust, unlike Rashan Salaam, curtis Ennis, Ki jana Carter, Eric Rhett.
