I thought Michael Bishop was going to play 10 years and have multiple playoff runs, even though he was dummy.

Another one was Steve Walsh

I'm setting over/under on JR mentioned 70%

I liked Jimmy Clausen and Brady Quinn. I didn't think Ryan Leaf was going to as bad as he was either.

I thought Matt Cassel was going to become a household name when he arrived in Kansas City.

Yikes.

I knew Clausen was going to be bad because he looked like a 12 year old. No one was ever gonna take that guy seriously in a huffle

Vince Young. I thought the Titans had their next franchise QB.

I thought Garrett Gilbert was going to be awesome as well after watching him in the '09 championship game.

JaMarcus Russell.

I've seen my fair share of SEC football, ain't never saw someone like that before or after him.

I dont even know who that is.

I really thought Gabbert was going to be good. I didnt think he should have gotten picked that high but I thought he would be a player


I think theres a spinoff thread here also

Leaf had all the physical tools, but was screwed up in the head, same with Jeff George

I thought Bledsoe would be elite

Jamarcus Russell is still the most physically gifted QB I've ever seen. It's a shame how he ended up.

Yep and the throw Bishop made right before OT may have been best throw I have seen. He threw it off back foot with someone on his legs 65 yards.

Goes to show you when it comes to the QB position what's upstairs is usually superior to what's below the neck. Proof: Chad Pennington was a good pro quarterback with a less than average arm strength.

I'll also throw Ronald Powell out there, in addition to DaQuan Bowers and the Clemson DE that tragically died -- yes, I'm a sucker for freak athletes that play DE.
