Honestly, my money is on Vernon Gholston. As much ability as he has, I just think he's either going to be great or awful. He almost seems to be too muscular. He's got all the potential in the world, but he's the most risky of the Top 10 picks.He might worry too much about his body and being a Football player. He phsically reminds me of Vincent Brown.

I'm going Ryan Clady. Soft as dough, Albert should have been the pick for the Broncos...........
 
Well I called Jemarcus Russell last year as a bust, and the jury is still out on that one, but I'm still in the running.

Gholston, is one of those players that worry you. Nobody ever heard of him, until AFTER the season was over. I wonder how hard he will play once he gets his money and then gets punched in the face a few times. It is one thing to come from a Div 1-AA school, but if play for Ohio St. and nobody knows who you are, then something is wrong.

I think Gholston could have some bust potential as an OLB in a 34 defense, but if you didn't hear about him until "after" the season, then you're likely not watching much college football. He had a bunch of sacks in 2007, and was getting hyped pretty heavily by the media and OSU fans, especially going into the National title game....where he underperformed.

Edit: I'm with you on Russell. Never thought that kid was going to be anything special at the next level, and couldn't understand why all the scouts were salivating over him.

Thats true, who the hell ever heard of the guy before the draft talk started. Obviously if you ask any Jets fans they'll act like they followed him since he was in Pop Warner.

Can't really say I'm suprised to see people now calling Vernon Gholston a bust.
 
G. Dorsey. Not very big or strong, and injury prone.
 
Talib and Flacco.

Yeah. This would be my pick. I actually think Gholston is going to have a pretty productive career.
 
I'll say McFadden, but only because the Raiders are foolish enough to think they're a year away from the SB. :singing: They had Dorsey fall right in their lap & they blew it.
 
Vernon Gholston- The Jets are one of the best bust factories in the pro's...
 
Who's going to be the biggest bust .................Mel Kiper
 
I unfortunately think Gholston will be very productive. My Bust pick/s Chris Long (I think He will be good, but not second pick overall good), another strong one on my list would be DMC (not 4th pick overall good).
