Top NFL draft busts of the modern era

    poor kijana.... Such a nice guy in person...

    I disagree with players who suffered injuries being on this list. It's one thing to completely not produce, and that's worthy of bust status, but being injury plagued is normally something that can't be faulted.

    Seemed like quite a few Colts on that list.
  • Enforcer
    and a few Notre Dame players as well

    I hope Courtney Brown made the list. Didn't look.

    IMO Couch would have beena good QB if drafted by a good team with an OL.

    Then Bill Polian came around....

    I kept waiting to see Ryan Leaf on this list finally he came up at 18... Im surprised he wasnt in the top 5 or atleast top 10.

    I dont think they were ranking them,were they?
  • 77Legend
    Glad Charles Rogers and Mike Williams made the list.
  • Al Capone

    Are you kidding, Carson Palmer is the biggest Quarterback bust since Ryan Leaf :)

    You don't know this answer already? He's both - seriously retarded.
  • Al Bundy
    I think Couch gets rated unfairly in these type of ratings. He can't really be judged either way. As a Browns fan, I would have to rate Brown and Warren as bigger busts.

    He's put up big numbers, and has led a team that went from horrid, to at least competitive since he was drafted. Just because he hasn't won a super bowl, doesn't mean he's not "worthy" of where he was drafted. He was drafted to the BENGALS, which in case you don't know (wouldn't be surprised if you didn't) probably deserved the first FIVE picks of the draft that year because they were so horrible. You don't need a super bowl to be worthy Big Gay Al, c'mon now. Just ask Dan Marino, or Warren Moon, Dan Fouts...all VERY serviceable QBs who never won the big one.

    I know Carson hasn't won a super bowl, but the guy hasn't even won a playoff game. BUUUUSSSSTT!!!!!

    No I think chronological order.
  • justincredible
    Vernon Gholston will be on that list in the near future. What a waste that guy was.

  • THE4RINGZ
