Would you consider Roy Williams, WR, a bust? He was good before he got traded to Dallas.

If his mind is right some team is going to get a big time weapon on the cheap

I do. Top 10 pick and only went over 1000 yards once, 5700 yards in his career

Roy looked like a great wr at first, then stopped caring I guess.

Hard to remember anyone I thought was a sure thing but plenty of guys I thought would be good or at least serviceable like David Carr. I thought Glenn Dorsey would make a real impact but he has been very average.

Hardly a bust

Archuleta and both Roy Williams weren't even close to being bust

My answer is Peter Warrick, he's the closest thing we have ever seen to Barry Sanders.

Jamarcus Russel...I don't even,NM...

Aaron Curry...Like someone said, "safest pick in the draft." Yeah right.

Blackmon...Remember thinking he was better than Dez Bryant. I know, stupid of me.

Beanie Wells...What's he been up too? Thought for sure he was gonna be great. Some RB's drafted after him are doing way more than him, like Lesean Mccoy. Wanted the Saints to get him too.

I actually always thought Ingram would make a better pro than Richardson and Richardson would be a better college player.

I was somewhat right but I did expect better from Ingram. He did finally have the season this year I iinda envisioned all along. This was before either of them were drafted and still playing together.

Richardson, Vince Young, Reggie Bush, (Dunno about y'all but I classify him as a bust given his hype coming in.) Russell, (Still think he would have been fine with another franchise) and Joe McKnight.

Ricky Williams. Dude was GREAT in college. I thought he was going to end up being the GOAT in the NFL, annnnnd not so much. Everyone should know his wild arse story...

Tim Couch: thought he was a better prospect than Manning, who came out the year before. Lol!


Matt Leinart: like everyone else at the time thought, he seemed like the most pro ready qb to come out in years. Wanted the saints to draft him. People forget no one knew what to expect from Brees coming off of a catastrophic shoulder injury.

Jason Smith OT from Baylor drafted 2nd overall by the Rams in 2009. At least Robert Gallery was able to find a niche at guard and ended up having a solid career for a little while. This guy couldn't even get a roster spot with the saints last year and they needed depth.

JP Losman - Looked really solid in college. Thought he would make a very good pro QB.
