Biggest bust Steven Garcia from USCe
To be a bust you must first be considered a big prospect.
I'm not sure what Garcia would have to do to be considered an NFL bust...maybe burn down the team offices while doing blow off a hooker's arse?

SEC: Stephon Gilmore
Overall: Ryan Tannehill (if he's picked in the top half of the first round and forced to start right away) or Jonathan Martin

Maybe he's talking about bust size, what is Garcia up to now anyways?

SEC: Hightower

Hightower was a beast for us. Sure, the year after he tore his knee up was not GREAT, but it was still good. Also, he's a fairly smart, relatively speaking. Not sure where all of the doubt is coming from.

Tannehill, no doubt in my mind he gets way over drafted. WTF is it with teams getting so desperate they take later round QBs in the mid-late 1st?

If RGIII is a bust it will be more about the Redskins then him IMO. You could send Drew Brees to Washington and he would be un productive.

Yup. Tannehill is blaine gabbert 2.0.

No, just no. Hightower won't bust, and Upshaw will only bust if he isn't used right.
From the SEC: Fletcher Cox (I like him, but for some reason I see him getting injured a lot. IF he doesn't, he'll be a beast. I don't know why I see him as a guy with a lot of injuries though.)
Overall: No way it is RG3, his only fault is he comes from a Spread. He's literally better than Luck. The biggest overall bust will be Coples.

What say you?
Awww look. A Bama fan trying to get Rantards to like him? How cute.
But I agree RGIII will be a bust. He's a one hit wonder who has not faced a great defense in his career. Without one incredible year we are talking about a 3rd round WR.

Seriously?
I just don't see it and that is not a homer opinion. Mo has unbelievable coverage skills, great hands, and speed. He is simply a great ball hawk. He's improved tremendously since high school and doesn't seem to have hit his potential yet.
I don't see how anyone can think Mo would be a bust.
I do agree with others on RGIII. I like him and hope he does great, but I just don't see it happening.

Tannehill and Gilmore will also be busts.

I'm an Aggie and I think Tannehill is TERRIBLY overrated.
That said, everyone already knows that.
What people don't seem to know is just how soft RGIII is. A&M beat him twice in a row, including a 30 point beat-down during his Hiseman campaign, by focusing on one thing: putting him in the dirt. The guy has amazing talent, throws a beautiful ball, but you can't respect him or he'll beat you. A&M, shitty as we were, didn't ever respect him. We just came right at him with intention to put his dick in the mud and did so. As soon as RGIII starts taking hits he gets frustrated. Once they start to add up he pouts, big time. Full-on titty-baby, I watched it happen against us, twice. He gave up, in protest to being hit, against us, twice in a row. Watch the film.
Taking Tannehill as high as he is predicted to go would be stupid, but mark my words, RGIII will get destroyed. He's weak-willed.

Tannehill
I think Luck will have one of the toughest roads because Indy will be SO bad for a few years.

Ryan Tannehill will be the biggest bust possible even making Ryan Leaf look like a good pick.

LoL @ Hightower, he could be the best LB in this draft
Biggest SEC: Mo Claiborne - extremely raw to be considered as high as he is, hate his tackling and run support skills
Overall: Kuechly - ZOMG If I hear ONE MORE THING about his coverage ability and INSTINCTS, he is so small with such short arms he will get DOMINATED in the NFL, when you watch tape of any run coverage AVERAGE OL put hands on him and get him on his heels skating, teams in the ACC even exploited it almost every game against BC's D by running it up the gut & having the OG pull up field and get him out of plays WAAAY too easily
& on Bama players, IF Upshaw is drafted by like the Chargers or somewhere where he can play a 3-4 OLB as a rush the way he was at Bama, he will be a great NFL player, if a 4-3 team drafts him to primarily play DE, he sadly will bust, not gonna be a guy that can beef up and rush consistently in the NFL sadly, could be wrong, but JMHO
Trent very seriously depends on where he goes, 4th overall to Cleveland in that west coast O, will not be NEARLY as effective, if Brownd take Blackmon & Trent goes @ #5 to Buccaneers, with Schiano's O and the revamped OL he will be a Pro Bowl caliber RB.
