Charles Rogers TD vs. ND

[MrDJ1195]

One of the all time bust at WR

[TheTigersWingsFan]

Who knows what this kid could of been. Nobody will ever know. True shame.

[jlsmsu12]

As an MSU fan, I don't like how MSU glorifies Charles Rogers. This guy is a complete FOLLY. He hasn't amounted to ANYTHING.

[jhss27]

@jlsmsu12 He won the Biletnikoff and was a freak athlete. He was an amazing player to watch, and he's a Spartan. It doesn't matter that he didn't become a star or that he has drug issues. He was a hero.

[stashJ8]

i still despise jeff smoker

[ManChild737]

Everyone who watched him knows how good he was. ya feel me.

[arc1929]

This is your brain. This is your brain on drugs. Any questions?

[xxreppinxx614xx]

Oh and look to your right and scroll down a little bit... you will see a guy in a broncos Uniform laying on the ground picking at a table, what about that guy?

[Th3Best0ne]

hard to belive this was 9 / 10 years ago........

[hillmert]

The first Spartans game after 9/11

[hillmert]

Charles Rogers: The past decade's biggest draft bust.

[MrThatswhatshesaid12]

@hillmert JaMarcus Russell, Eric Crouch, Danny Wuerfel, etc., are all bigger draft busts.

[xxreppinxx614xx]

@MrThatswhatshesaid12 you do realise the Rams converted Crouch to a WR right?

[Dumblewh0re]

@MrThatswhatshesaid12 Danny Wuerfel sucked dick. He was like 30 when he won the heisman, he was doomed from the start anyway. Eric Crouch had only athletic talent, not football talent. JaMarcus was indeed a huge bust.

[MrRambo408]

@MrThatswhatshesaid12 aahhaha lmao this dude went #2 top five bust of all time russells story aint over yet but for now bust eric crouch a bust how???he was even a first round draft pick ithink he was like a 3rd and for a 5"11 qb whit a hiesman trophy in his living room and gitt drafted not to fucking bad not bad at all and danny=chris wienkie nuff sed

[gostate009]

I'm an MSU fan and i know he sucked for the Lions.even though he did score 2 tds in his first NFL game

[ddddddd543]

How come all the great MSU wide receivers are dumbasses?

[FrankeeFraud]

One of the greatest college football frauds in recent memory; MSU program always listed him as 6' 4", but Lions found out too late he wasn't even 6' 1". Ouch.

[Hitman27100]

@FrankeeFraud considering they take height and weight measurements at the combine, if millen missed his height...regardless, no psurprises where that fuckstick is concerned

[karims9]

i say if he didnt get injured, he would be the next randy moss. injury ruined his life. the precription drugs was for the pan for his collarbone it fucked up his life.

[broad08530]

What a worthless piece of sh!t. Go enjoy Jail, Chuck.

[tangwich1]

maybe the second most gifted wr to play in college the past 15 years after Moss

[QueenStreetBlood]

Rogers was soo good. if never broke his collarbones 2 years in a row this guy would be the real deal. shame about injuries that probably got him into more off the field troubles..sad to see talent like this just dissappear..cant believe he ran a 4.2 aswell.

[Shwinny1]

He needed more pot :/

[ddddddd543]

that's bullshit. Charles Rogers was a total piece of shit if he was blessed with all that talent and threw it all away with drugs and crimes. He ruined his own career, yet state fans still defend him. To be honest, it doesn't surprise me.

[mwyatt787]

@QueenStreetBlood damn I didnt know rogers ran a 4.2 he had moss type talent thats nasty, i remember that Two TD catch game he had like 4-5 td in 3 games then broke his collarbone

[spartannut]

Biggest waste of talent.  Arrested again for DUI. Why don't you just throw your life away.

[berishajrb]

we got calvin johnson now thank God

[afrojoe1987]

THE BIGGEST DISSAPOINTMENT!!!!

[jmeyerhead]

rumor has it he might be working out for a ufl team

[ldc62]

hes signing for some canadian team. But w.e. this kid is a prime example of someone wasting their talent. He has speed and pretty good ability.

[jdawgisback]

Annnd then he gets got driving intoxicated and high.

[34moss]

rumor has it he is going to jail

[6xL1oydx5]

he is making a comback for next season

[dogggcatt2]

what made him a bust wasnt his play on the field it was his life off the field the ruin his career he could have been a very good receiver

[lightsabre5511]

he coulda been great, this guy WAS fast as moss coming out, but his devotion to weed and injuries did him in

[TheLonewolf313]

yea ur right and the fact that millen drafted him. i think if he was drafted to another team that had the mentoring he would of been good wr in the nfl

[ldc62]

The problem was he wasted his talent away cuz he was an idiot. Not to mention some injury problems.

[tony2crunk]

Andre Johnson!! Go Texans!!

[osiume]

injuries fucked this guy over

[victory4msu26]

Injuries started it but it was drugs that really finished Rogers off. He had a bad drug problem and if he didnt I think he would still be in the NFL and be a decent player.

[youngobes]

only if by injuries you mean his obscene love of marijuana

[MicDizzle2]

lol

[mrslipons3]

and weed lol

[NastyKobra]

Maybe everbody on that list except for Nnamidi Asomugha, he was drafted in 2000 or 2001 but yeah all the other guys they could have drafted

[LogDog99]

Still, this is an outstanding play and an example of what he was able to accomplish. Yes, he has made some horrible mistakes since, but at least give this man that he was an outstanding college player. When shit hit the fan in the program in 2002, he stuck it out and played tremendous game after game. I know, he is a druggie now and doesn't deserve many more chances, but he was a great Spartan who did not ever give up and provided some very memorable plays. Go Green Chuck, we still care about ya

[boredguy9]

He might have been a great spartan, but he was and is a druggie. He failed multiple drug tests throughout college and was on the NFL substance abuse watchlist when he came into the league. That said the only people who should be blaimed for this are the scouts/GM who ignored the red flags

[kuya4charlie4]

Wow, did the Lions miss on this or what?

They could have drafted:

Andre Johnson

Terence Newman

Terrell Suggs

Troy Polamalu

Larry Johnson

Nnamdi Asomugha

Epic Fail!!

[lightsabre5511]

but in terms of physical talent, rogers was far and away in a class by himself,,the guy ran a legit 4.28 40. i guess people didn't want to make the same mistake they made when they let Randy Moss drop to 21 overall.

[MicDizzle2]

Just an awfull pick by the Lions when they could of had Andre Johnson.

[jlcochran]

22 catches for 243 yards and 3 touchdowns through five games into his rookie season. Yeah, awful pick in hindsight, after he got injured. But most thought he was a can't-miss prospect. I guess they should've consulted you before they picked since you knew Andre would be where he's at today.

[joker4028]

roflll

i swerr, plus u proly dint kno how good he was in college, and anyone wouldve taken him, like you knew he would get injured, and become a drugie

[hspnc777]

thats so true man

[TheNextAriGold]

hindsight is 20/20

[noname6317]

he smoked a lot of weed in college too

[TheNextAriGold]

no shit he went to michigan state, home of thugs

[joker4028]

lmfaoooo

[StaticLullaby91]

Charles Rodgers was gonna be a NFL star but then he got high...

[DankBombCroosh]

@StaticLullaby91

weed doesn't fuck people's lives up. Lazy people fuck lives up. Do you think he started smoking weed when he got drafted by the Lions? No, he has probably been smoking weed since he was 13.

[lakersfan22]

he was alright but the injury like others ruined his career

[mannyfresh4321]

charlie was a good player but now hes a better coach.

[Marikasakura]

Wow.......to think they could have actually had Andre Johnson, but instead they got him. How shitty.....

[Marikasakura]

Fuck state U. MU does a way better job of producing good NFL players.

[Zackattack52287]

Who is MU, exactly?

[lairdda1]

I second that question.

Also, it's funny what people will argue about. By the way it's also funny that "MU" has the best talent in college and MSU produces as many pro players as "MU". You know, the kind of players that catch the Super Bowl winning TD etc.

[Skywalker0736]

Charles: Do you want fries with that?

[DisneyWorld85]

If only he would have played that hard for the Lions.

[tanelious280]

he was like anotha plaxico

[whitemike813]

yea i liked him alot coming outta college but he was possibly one of the biggest bust ever

[lairdda1]

It's kind of hard to blame him. Other than Barry Sanders, all players drafted by the Lions end up sucking....that organization is like a black hole.

[jdawgisback]

Calvin Johnson?

Jeff Backus?

Ernie Sims?

[MicDizzle2]

Well,Roy Williams isn't that shabby and I think Calvin Johnson is a Playmaker.

PS~Mike Williams,Joey Harrington,and Charles Rogers all shouldn't have been picked.These picks were all Matt Millens falt so good thing he is gone or it would have gotten a whole lot worse.

[HeyItsJack07]

Charles was by far my favorite MSU player ever, he came from my hometown, he was amazing, I just wish he would have made some smarter choices after college, he had a lot of potential.

 Go Green!

[Nick1944]

hmmm. Julian Peterson is a beast.4 time pro bowler 3 time all-pro so i think he's better than "decent." Muhsin Muhammad is getting old but was great.

[yepyepok]

Ryan Leaf?

[Jdub14000]

Smoking bud=Charles Rodgers

[kareemthedream33]

hey msu thanks for producing an overrated piece of shit who cant even crack a cfl team. you have one decent player in the whole goddamn nfl and its burress.

[LogDog99]

I guess we're just not counting Flozell Adams (one of the league's best OL), Julian Peterson (All-pro linebacker) or Derrick Mason (103 rec last year at 34 years old).

You sir, are a fucking moron.

[kareemthedream33]

what a response. You come up with 3 players all slightly above average. I could sit here and name michigan players but seriously, whats the point in arguing with an msu fan. Get out of my shadow.

[tidmanma]

Like Michigan has that many GREAT players in the NFL right now. Of course Brady, Braylon had a good season and Ty Law had a good career. Everyone else sucks... Plus Michigan should have more because they get all the talent. Just like MSU does at basketball... look at how many NBA players came from MSU compared to Michigan

By the way where did the All Time Leader in Points scored in the NFL go to college? Oh ya Morten Andersen went to Michigan State

[Marikasakura]

Forgot about Charles Woodson. 4 pro bowls and 3 all pro selections throughout his career.

[SpartanGreen420]

Marika shut the fuck up get over charles woodson those days are gone lets think about this year and right now! State will crush you in the Big house you fuckin tampon sucker

[corpeningraiders]

fuck all yall eastern michigan is the best

haha jk

[566dave]

Another land-grant washout.

[BlessTheFallxXx]

he could of been one of the best. oh well.

[trainbike47]

Such a waste of talent, could have been one of the best.

[G2AME]

dont fucking talk shit u dont know he was doing weed not fucking crack

[sportsnerd127]

To bad his careers over. he was going to be a hall of famer if he didn't start doing crack

[PittsbrgPplEtr]

biggest bust in nfl history.what was he like a second overal pick?no out og the league sniffing crack?

[Ginga]

He definitely wasn't the biggest bust in NFL history. There are so many more.

[txl301md]

TRUTH!! Pathetic Lions will NEVER Win. Shoulda built their offense around charles when he came back and covered up his indisgressions like winning orgs do.

[diablo313]

Rogers could of been a great player if never broke his collarbone. He had amazing catches and TDs in his first games as a Lion.

[wooddog21]

Why was he not just at least an ok pro?

[Ginga]

He couldn't stay on the field. I really didn't care much for Mike Williams but Rogers looked like he could be good.

[alexmueller22]

charles rodgers is a great pro player.....hahahahahaah

[CDean30]

first of all i want to say i loved coach bobby williams, he was a coach that cleatly wasnt given a fair chance taking over a program that had so so talent and one superstar. second of all charles rodgers was one of msu's best recievers! ....but he did screw up i will admit! SPARTYON!!!!!

[LogDog99]

Bobby Williams was a joke and he embarrassed the university and himself. He lost 49-3 to Michigan for Christ sake. The whole program was in shambles, players were on drugs, so on and so forth. Then his sorry ass tried to play the race card when they finally got rid of him. Good riddence.

[Redwings119]

Agreed.

[brigirl208]

thats my cousin rogers

[jimmytwotimez]

your cousin sucks....what is he doing now??

[11williams]

To bad he had to much stash lol

[jjdrk]

He was so good in college

[leachman80]

rogers is a good player just got in a bad crowd. he just wasted is talent.

[yungboi97]

this guy is a fucking loser

[Ginga]

Wow. It's amazing how talent can go tow waste so eaily. I read somehwere he ran 4.8 when he tried for a team in Jan. of 07. He ran a 4.28 back in 03.

[MisterRevan]

Playing for the Lions would drive any man to drugs.

[mitchlel]

I bet rogers wouldve sucked wherever he went

[ychennay]

good point

[Erix7810]

hes such a scrub now i cant believe i was ever a fan of him

[boilermaker82]

Here's a question to ponder: Who's the biggest bum in this video... Charles Rogers or Bob Davie?

[zeelaw]

wat a bumb now

[Zothegorilla]

What a Waste!!

[BananaPuddin]

Man I wish Charles would clean up his act...He was such a good player in college.
