Watched NFL films Top Tens all yesterday LOL... one category was NFL busts. Even with the best info, even when you disregard relatively unimportant stuff, like the sprinting speed of a QB, there are an awful lot of Jeff Georges and Ryan Leafs littering the path. (Also saw Free Agent busts... it was hilarious... the #1 was just "The Washington Redskins," as in anybody the Redskins pay, they overpay, and then they turn off the engine and coast.)
Have to disagree w/I believe RayClay, who said the "I think I can I think I can" types have less washouts than the talented athletes. It just looks that way, because the less athletically talented guys are supposed to fail.
Still, there's nobody -- nobody -- who's the lock he's supposed to be (year in and year out.) For every Matt Stafford (who seems to be getting there,) there's a Joey Harrington, who sometimes -- sometimes -- showed flashes of competency.
Peyton seems to be losing his "place" in Indy... and they look like they'll be relying on Luck.
Soon enough it'll be our turn. I'll be knocking on wood when the day comes, whether Mallet or Hoyer is supposed to end up being the guy, or whether we look to the draft to do better.
NFL busts lol, have to check that out.
Even If all 32 teams got their dream players at every position at the beginning of a given season and all 32 end up with 8-8 records, come february there's only one team left living the dream, 30 that aren't worth mentioning and 1 big loser.
Apparently if there's a legacy to protect avoiding the SB might not be a bad idea.:confused2:
Looks like the only time organizations get to feel as if they're making the right decisions and winning something is during and after the drafting process.
