we live in a capitalist and free market economy, and i'm all for randle, peterson, murphy and other former Tigers breaking the banks of any, and every, NFL owner willing to pay them.
This is why I prefer CFB over the NFL BTW.
But to your point. Don't get me wrong, I hope that all former Tigers do well financially, but it is a little embarrassing when LSU football starts to kinda become synonymous with "high NFL bust rate". And that won't be good for LSU football longterm if that perception starts to become mainstream.

I agree - high profile busts will not bode well for a college program.
The media, and us tiger fans, have cherry-picked a few former Tigers to prove our, or their, point.
We have gobs of former Tigers that are invaluable to their teams. Media and bloggers seemed determined to ensure the truth doesn't interfere with a good story.
