Most Likely First Round Bust

I think both Macklin and Heyward-Bey don't have it. MOst rookie WRs suck to begin with but H-B was a serious reach and drops more passes than Byalon and Macklin played the slot in college. Essentially he never run real pro routes. I also don't think Macklin even if he projects out right is what they need. They have a speed guy. They need a guy who can go and get balls for TDs. Not more homerun hitters.

I just have a feeling Brian Cushing has bust written all over him.

Heyward-Bey could be a pretty good NFL WR I think, but the fact that he landed in Oakland and was picked at least 10 spots higher than projected definitely increases his chances for bust status.
