But the point is that he could still be a bust.

If Ezekiel Elliott goes on to put up Trent Richardson numbers, he'll be a bust.

He hasn't yet, but he could be.

See how dumb that sounds?

Yes. If a 23 year old makes a Pro Bowl, can you call him a bust when he's still 23?

Jadeveon just needed to get healthy, end of story. Everything else that made him the 1st overall pick was there. Frankly, I'm glad they took care of his health and played it cautiously. It should pay off in the long term, and its clearly already paying off now.

He was never a bust. This is his 3rd year in the league, and he was injured most of his first.

Good for him. He's been a beast this year. Not hating on Clowney, but how many GM's do you guys think would still take him over Mack even given his success this year? I still think Mack is a better player.

I'll be honest, I thought he'd be an injury plagued bust. Glad to see he's playing well. He is a freak when he's healthy.

Microfracture surgery killed one year and really hurt his explosiveness in year 2. It's promising to see what he's doing now. Hard to call him a bust based on that injury even last year.

Glad he is showing some maturity these days. The way he quit on the gamecocks was inexcusable.
