He got drafted to the Raiders, so it's hard to judge. Oakland didn't want them, Los Angeles didn't want them, Oakland is stuck with them unless San Antonio wants them. Then "Raiders" will take on a whole new meaning. It would probably be deemed inappropriate just like the Washington Bullets.

Jamarcus is worse then Leaf IMO. Jamarcus' Raider teams did not suck anywhere near as hard as Leafs Charger teams, Injuries didn't play a part in Jamarcus sucking AND Jamarcus went 1st.

But no worries Stafford might take Jamarcus crown .

At least Leaf wasn't the #1 pick.


yeah, but the Raiders just picked JR with their pick, San Diego gave up 3 or 4 picks to move up 1 spot and take Leaf.

Yeah but Leaf would have been #1 if Manning wasnt there. Remember the Manning/Leaf debate? Everyone said that Russell was better than Quinn so he was the consensus #1 QB that year.

Man it seems nuts now, but I remember a lot of talking heads saying that Leaf was the better choice because his arm was stronger. I have to give a slight edge to Leaf being the biggest bust ever, just because he was pretty much out of the league by year 3. Jamarcus can still save his carrier if he gets his ish together.

But if he doesn't, he will be no doubt the biggest bust ever.

EVER? NOT NO BUT frick NO


True dat...folks don't have a clue...besides, Jamarcus is still in the league, and can still turn it around & be productive. There were many who failed before, a lot bigger names, who never produced. The jury is still out, but his career is far from over to call him one of the biggest busts...
