You expect a team to pay him all year when he tore his ACL in the Super Bowl?

Jamarcus Russell had the ability to pass for 60,000 yards and 500 touchdowns in 15 years.

Also wasn’t a great fit for him schematically in KC.

Just to add some names of guys I thought would’ve had longer careers in the league:
Keiland Williams
Chad Lavalais
Richard Dickson
Early Doucet

Not sure what happened with Faulk


Tore his ACL in practice after the 1st or 2nd game in 2012. Decided to leave early, and I think the Browns picked him up for a year or 2. But he was never “right” again.

couldn’t believe Terrence Toliver, the WR wasn’t an NFL stud.


One of the first that came to mind. There were games where he looked like a man amongst boys, e.g., UF and A&M in '10.

Kendall Beckwith


To be fair, didn’t he have a car wreck or something that fricked up his ankle that never healed?

I remember he had a pretty promising start in the league right?

Yes. He was starting as a rookie and TB
was high on him. Shame he didn’t recover from that injury.

Crazy how Thad is that slow, but his dad is one of the fastest guys to ever step foot on a field.

Chaisson, should not be buried on the depth chart, after being a first round pick.

I thought Lavalais would have carved himself out a nice 10 year career.

Melvin Oliver had a short stint in the NFL.
