For me:

Mark Sanchez. Based on the Jets fans reaction at the NFL draft when they picked him, you think they had just drafted Jesus Christ himself to play QB and that Sanchez would lead them to 10 Super Bowl titles. But I knew he wasn't good and was overhyped simply because he played QB at USC.

Ryan Tannehill. Still hasn't done anything to justify being picked at #8. He started 1.5 seasons at A&M and threw away many games his senior year. The defense at A&M was why they won 9 games in 2010, not because of him. He was awful against LSU.

Matt Barkley. Remember all the hype he had in 2009 when they beat Ohio State on the road and the media acted like he single handedly engineered that game winning drive? Even though he completed one pass the entire drive, and Joe McKnight had 60+ yards on the ground that drive? Yeah, he was a bust. People were talking him up as having the potential to be the best college QB of all time and the future #1 pick after that game.

Mark Sanchez to me was the most obvious of those.

Wish he would have transitioned to TE.

I know but the Jets fans reactions at the draft... I have never seen a fanbase celebrate so wildly at a pick before

They usually boo
