The G himself, Bruce Perry.

Tres Moses, UDFA from Rutgers. Didn't really think he'd be good, but he was a badass.

BuddyCHRIST · 06-10-2009, 08:27 PM

Greg Jones is the highest paid FB ever and one of the best in the league, hasn't exactly been a bust.

I liked Mike Williams, Reggie Williams, Ben Troupe and they've disappointed.

CC.SD · 06-10-2009, 08:38 PM

Lol at the Shark, I'm not so sure he counts. :)

edit: I totally admit I didn't feel like typing out Samardzija. D'oh!

CashmoneyDrew · 06-10-2009, 08:39 PM

I wanted Samardzija to choose the NFL too. :(

He is was my favorite player at Rutgers a couple of years ago.

FinChase · 06-11-2009, 09:29 AM

Bad or not as special as expected:

Michael Huff - I thought he wouldn't miss a beat transitioning to the pros
D'Brick - I would have happily traded the Cowboys entire draft that year for him
Robert Gallery - All the experts swore he couldn't miss
Lendale White - I was praying he would drop a few spots lower in the 2nd so that we could draft him. He hasn't been terrible, but he's not been special.
Bobby Carpenter - I was pleased that the Cowboys drafted him--now, not so much
Mike Williams - I was disappointed when the Lions (thank you) took him one spot ahead of the Cowboys
Marcus Spears - Meh
Rashaun Woods - He was really good in college. I never expected him to bust so completely.

Much better than I expected:
DeMarcus Ware - I really wanted Merriman over him. Merriman's been great, but I'll now take DWare over him.
Joe Flacco - He's only played one year, but I thought the Ravens were fools for taking him in the first round. I was wrong.
Marion Barber - I liked several RBs in the 2nd-4th rounds more than the Barbarian

There are more but that's enough

gtfo. he's not a running back. he's a RB/FB hybrid. and he's hardly a bust.

I hate it when people don't know what they're talking about, but continue anyway.

oh, and Sinorice MOss. thought he'd be ******* awesome...

Wootylicous · 06-11-2009, 03:59 PM

Ray Rice...oops :D

GhostDeini · 06-11-2009, 04:28 PM

I really liked Alex Barron when he was coming out, 6'7 320 with huge wingspan. At the time I said Texans took the wrong Florida St. Seminole in Travis Johnson. Both ended up sucking. Also Derrick Johnson. NCAA record in forced fumbles, Butkis Award winner. He doesnt suck but hasnt made nearly the impact I thought he would've by now. There are few more but they arent coming to me right now.

jayceheathman · 06-11-2009, 05:57 PM

Troy Williamson was someone I was hoping would fall to the Texans. One I was right on was Andre Johnson. I was praying that the Lions would take Rogers so Houston could take AJ. One pick I was WAY wrong on was Matt Ryan. I thought he would suck.

DoughBoy · 06-11-2009, 06:13 PM

Well my list is short since I am a draft guru but here it is..

Tyrone Calico
Ben Troupe
Vince Young
Aundre Allison
Rashuan Woods
Carlos Rodgers
Mike Williams
Alex Smith
Quentin Moses
Jessie Mahalona
Jimmy Kennedy
Reggie Williams
Ko Simpson
Greg Blue
Jason Allen
Daryll Tapp
Vernon Davis
Robert Meachem
Gerald Riggs Jr
Chad Jackson

To be continued.......

Was he too busy napping to post it himself?

Manny Lawson for me as well. He has such great workout numbers, but has been less impressive so far.

Yes, actually. He was sleep talking.

But he did bust, and big time. Almost predictably since he was a huge reach but I think that every player should play up to where they were selected and he didn't. Not even for one play.
