What do you mean no? Trent Richardson was hyped as the best RB prospect since Peterson leading up to the 2012 draft. That's not an opinion, that happened.

Denver has drafted a lot of running back busts lately. Knowshon Moreno

The only thing busted is his knee

For what, the second time? He tore it in 2014 with the Miami Dolphins and 2011 with the Denver Broncos. Through 6 NFL seasons, he has missed a total of 33 games. He can't stay on the field.

Lived up to their potential? lol. Like every RB drafted in RD 1 is supposed to be eric dickerson.

The shelf life of an NFL RB is 3.5 years.

quote:

2008
Darren McFadden
Johnathan Stewart
Felix Jones
Rashard Mendenhall (Retired)
Chris Johnson



DMC, Stewart, and CJ2K are still around 7 seasons later and all saw another contract or two. DMC and CJ have earned $40m+, Stewart $30m+. Mendenhall has 3 seasons of 900+ yards, a SB ring, and $14m in earnings

Felix jones is a bust. There ya go

quote:

2009
Knowshon Moreno
Donald Brown
Beanie Wells


Moreno and Brown are still in the league, saw another contract, both already earned $14m+

Wells busted

quote:

2010
CJ Spiller
Ryan Matthews
Jahvid Best (Retired)


lol

Spiller and Matthews are still in their prime in the league. Both have multiple good seasons under their belt. Matthews just inked an $11m deal and Spiller a $16m deal

quote:

2011
Mark Ingram



Still in prime, inked for $16m

quote:

2012
Trent Richardson
Doug Martin
David Wilson (Retired)


Richardson and Martin may truly be busts. But they have 3 years in the league? give me a break



TBob hyped this shitty segment this AM like it was the best thing he ever heard. Cant believe they let yall put this shite out to the public

Thanks for clarifying.

Yeah, Denver seems to have trouble selecting a running back.

Neither was I

You were the one that brought up Oher as a good first round pick.

Or are you saying Oher is a better pick that AP because he has a SB? I honestly can't figure out what your point was supposed to be

There's no maybe to it with Trent Richardson, he fricking sucks, IMO. Definite bust.

Agree with the rest of your post.
