Who do you think from this year's draft will be the " bust ".
 
i no exactly who it will be and dont u guys come cryin to me in a few few years caus i told ya so lol
 
Ryan Clady comes to mind when I think of potential BUST's in the top 10.

Not the strongest guy . . . he will struggly mightly in the run game, unlike Jake Long who should be a BEAST in the run game
Weak upper body strength (bad rep total at combine, blamed shoulder injury, didn't do it at his Pro Day either)
Low Wonderlic (13) . . . may indicate he will struggle with the playbook at the next Level.
Played in the WAC if I'm not mistaken . . . he didn't face some of the more elite pass rushers like Jake Long did.

Now I LOVE his agility and body type . . . he is nimble and looks like he potentially can be a STUD at LT . . . but I think it will take some time with him . . . I don't think u can plug him in and watch him have great success early. He IMO is NOT what Miami is looking for at Tackle . . . they want a Tackle that is strong in the run game . . . and Clady needs to get much stronger to become that. He has tons of talent . . . but he is taking a big step up . . . and if I had to choose a guy, it would be him. Not saying he is better than Jake at pass pro either . . . but he definitely has the nimbleness u covet in an elite pass protector.
 
QB's always have the most potential in being the top bust in drafts.

True Story.
 
I'd vote for Carl Nicks if he were on that list, but he isn't.
 
Maybe it's just me...but we haven't had the draft yet and already looking for a player to label a bust?

Clady has a 39.5 reach thats why its hard to bench.
 
MATTY ICE: BECAUSE HE DOES NOT SHAVE HIS LEGS LIKE BRADY QUINN.

of the top prospects, the 3 most likely to bust are Vernon Gholston, Ryan Clady, and Domique Rodgers-Cromartie.

Gholston cause he might be more of an athlete than a football player

Clady cause he struggled against top pass rushers

DRC because of compitition.

I don't know if any of them will best, but on this board, Joe Flacco will not live up to expectations

I voted "other"

The guy I thought that could have been added to the poll is Rashard Mendenhall. The draft is thin at RB and he has been getting a lot of good press lately.

He did have a breakout 2007 season but, even more than other draft prospects, a lot of stock is being put into his potential versus his track record. I'll give him the benefit of the doubt since he has pretty much been on below average teams (even in high school) but when he gets mentioned to be a possible top 10 to 15 pick, I wouldn't feel safe relying on him for the production that is expected from a RB that high in the draft.

Although I think he will be successful in the NFL, he's just a little overrated at this point.
