Most Likely First Round Bust

[RedNJ]

Heyward-Bey has it written all over him. Davis picked him way too high.

The ones I thought of have already been mentioned...so I'm going to say Mark Sanchez! Yes, he is not going to be what people think he's going to be. Certainly freeman is WAAAAY too overrated as well. Heyward-Bey is the easiest pick of all time...what a stupid pick.

Since I started the thread I will return now to...Vontae Davis. They say the guy refuses to be coached. That is an NFL kiss of death. He'll end up being burned more times than a church candle.

I do not remember where I read this , but at the combine , he was very fast , but was about as stiff as a MLB in his hips . This is one guy Im glad we did not pick !

Why? I think he will do very well for Arizona. Will be a 1000 yard back very soon for them.

[pick-ups]

Yeah Vontae is very raw as far as a CB

[Dirtbag59]

Odds should be on Stafford but I like his intangibles as well as the fact that he gets to throw to Calvin Johnson who's one of the few recievers in the league that can make a QB good as opposed to the other way around.

Heyward Bey though is my choice. Poor QB play, average production in college, average route running ability, need I say more?

Going with Sanchez. Eager to see how the tackle from Baylor plays as well. Matt Stafford has the talent of an expansion team around him(exception of C. Johnson), so him not performing wouldnt be a surprise, but not entirely his fault.

I was thinking the same thing. For the first tackle chosen, in the market he played in, I think he'll be a bust by his draft status only. Sure, he might start, but selected that high I can't see him being a linchpin of a line.

I have a lot of potential busts, but if I were to give you my 5 they would be:

1) heyward bey... High pick, bad team, ok in college (troy williamson?!?)
2) maybin...too thin, should of stayed a year in college
3) cushing... Injuries will hurt him
4) freeman, your arm is strong but your football iq isn't
5) kenny britt...never heard of you till the draft and isn't that fluid/ smooth when he plays

Honorable mention: Jason smith (tore ACL in college, and light weight), clay Matthews (didn't start at USC and was ok not a sack every time type player or good coverage guy now the pack want him to play OLB)

That is my pick too. He is going to be eating a lot of turf.

My picks

Top 5 Easy one's

1.- Matthew Stafford I just don't see it.. in all the college film I've seen he was just OK. he might end up being that Just OK but for the 1st pick he will never live up to the hype

2.- H-B Talk about a reach the guy wasn't even projected to be picked in the first round but Al doesn't think straight when he see's speed. Stupid pick the kid has no hands.

3.- Josh Freeman people get in-love with the new thing in the NFL no way he was worth a first round pick the kid is a Q.Carter waiting to happen.

4.- Vontae Davis no hips stiff as a rock they guy will get burned as a regular baisis

5.- Tyson Jackson smells like another Vernon Gholston another twinner LB that we ddin't knew nothing about until the combine. Over Hyped not too much production.

Special Bonus

Brian Orakpo look guys it didn't had too do anything with you guys picking this dude I didn't liked the player since I watched him and saw all the highlights and other reports. I see a guy with tons of talent not too much motivation just looking for the big Payday... for me he reminds me of Ebenezer Ekuban of Dallas or other players that looked like freaks of nature that could destroyed the other opposition but didn't... The fact is that at Texas he took a lot of plays off couldn't beat good LT and wasn't great Against the Run I said thsi before the draft in other boards before the pick came. Know that I'm going to get trashed but hey I always tell yo uguys like I See it I'm not goignt to stop now.

2nd round pick I like.

Maualuga, Rey -Cin I still don't know how Cushing and Matthews went before this guy he was the LB corps of USC for me he was the best ILB in the draft and he might be the next Rey Lewis to bad he got Cin as a home but man he was a freak at college and showed all the explosion you want in your ILB.

My understanding is that KC intends Jackson exclusively as a hand-down 3-4 DE, not as a tweener.

It is likely good for us to get a reality check regarding Orakpo. However, leaving the Redskins FO out of it, your views on him are not widely shared among non-Redskins evaluators. We'll see.
