I should also add that as a child when the Saints drafted Wuerffel I had convinced myself (after years of watching him torch LSU) that he would be the savior. I vividly remember my dad laughing at me, but as someone who didn't know shite about football and only knew names I thought for sure we got the GOAT.

I was the same way. I couldn't understand why it wasn't a big deal that we just drafted the Heisman trophy winner.

Wuerffel


The only one I can honestly say I'm surprised by.

The only QB's I have since said would be superstars were Manning and Luck. And I certainly didn't think Brady would be.

I fully expected Russell to be a bust. Save about 3/4 of his last year the dude was lazy as hell. His vision was terrible and he trusted his arm way too much.

Same here.

I will overstate the fact that I was a teenager that didn't really know that college production doesn't always translate to the NFL.
