Predictions for NFL busts from previous 3 NFL drafts?
Posted on 12/30/14 at 3:42 am

Mine: Luke Joeckel - OT Jacksonville jags. Drafted out of Texas a &m. 2nd overall pick in 2013 draft
Dude couldn't keep a hungry charging 1 year old off his mom's tit if he tried. Injured most of last year and got destroyed this year. He just is soft and looks like he won't be around long. Give me your predictions on future NFL busts?

Damn Shame, I'm not writing him off yet but another pick that was considered "safe" for the most part but hasn't lived up to his draft status.

Not to hijack thread, but how is the guy that went ahead of him doing? I remember talk about Joeckel and other guy battling for #1.

Johnny Douchebag is looking like an epic bust.

Eric Fisher starts for KC. He's not great.

EJ Manuel looks to be done.

Tavon Austin given far too much credit and drafted way too high

Marcus mariotta. He's never going to make it. Great kid, nice guy, great ht/wt/40 time. But he won't get to play in an Oregon system and he won't be able to do near as much damage running the ball. I pity the team who picks him. Dude doesn't have a chance.

The correct answer is CLOWNEY.

Agree with Joeckel. JJ Watt was picking on him bad Sunday. I also think Clowney is already on his way to bust status.

Might not be "bust", but definitely not the level of hype they were going into the draft.
Every 2013 "premier pass rusher" not named Ziggy Ansah.
Dion Jordan - 3rd overall pick, 26 games 3 sacks. He was trade bait this past offseason as well.
Barkevious Mingo - so many "intangibles". 6th overall pick, 30 games 7 sacks (5 last year).
Jarvis Jones - some predicted "the next Suggs". Bad combine #s, but productive college tenure. 17th overall pick, 21 games (IR'd this year) 3 sacks.

RGIII at #2
He still has time to turn it around and have a successful career but it won't be in Washington, and even then I don't think he will ever live up to the promise of a #2 pick. His diminished mobility really puts a damper on any future expectations I have for him going forward.
Trent Richardson at #3
He could turn into a solid back eventually but will never turn into the workhorse that many thought he would or come close to justifying being a top 3 pick
Justin Blackmon at #5
I know Blackmon has all the talent in the world but I would not be surprised if he never gets his shite together and has played his final snap in the NFL. I honestly hope not because when he is on the field he is an electrifying WR.

Luke Joeckel at #2
Agree with everything that OP had to say about him dude is awful
Tavon Austin at #8
The guy is a playmaker when he has the ball in his hands, but he still seems like a one trick pony who solely relies on speed. It blows my mind how he managed to go in the top 10 especially when you consider bigger guys with similar skill sets, Mike Wallace for one, have typically gone in the 3rd-4th round.

Blake Bortles #3
Disagree. Coaching staff went very conservative after he had a few pick sixes. They got ultra conservative and his game went to shite. Went from 300+ yards per game to 100 yards a game. He can sling it around. If he can prove that he can be a little more safe with his throws Bortles is a franchrise qb. Also 3 rookie receivers, no OL, no running game, shitty TE didn't help.
