Who was more of a disappointment?

Cadillac or Ronnie Brown?
I laid off using the word bust for either guy because I don't think that's quite fair.
I'll vote Ronnie Brown

Being injured makes you a disappointment?

Why wouldn't it?
Kijana Carter is labeled a bust for being constantly hurt

Ronnie Brown had some injuries.
He was tearing it up in 2007 before the injury.
He had five pretty good seasons.. that's about the elite life span.

He wasn't horrid, but didn't have near the career I thought he would coming out

As Auburn RBs, neither was a disappointment, as I was hoping for epic failure for the both of them.

They've both been very good when healthy, unfortunately they both have injury issues. Cadillac has been injured more, so I would say he is more disappointing, but he is still good.

Honest question...what Auby offensive player(high draft pick) didn't end up a disappointment?
Bo was a "shooting star" that got hurt, derailed his career, but who else didn't flame out for any reason before getting old?

Jason campbell has been pretty consistently average to this point

I don't really label KiJanna a bust, due to injury or Entman. I label busts as people like Akili Smith, Dan McGwire, R-Jay Sauer. People who got every chance and did not capitalize or attempt to caapitalize on it.

When he was healthy Ronnie Brown wasn't a disappointment at all, Cadillac got worn down so early in his career by Gruden's playcalling that he has never been the same.

Brown was pretty good a in Miami when healthy. Cadillac was never healthy. I think he's probably been more of a disappointment.
Crazy to look back and see that 3 RB went in the top 5 of the draft. That probably will never happen again.

ronnie brown was drafted #2 overall and eclipsed 1,000 yds once. Tough to say he wasn't disappointing. You expect multiple pro bowls drafting a guy there and you got an adequate starter

I feel like Carnell Williams' running style is what did him in. He tries to run through tacklers the way Brandon Jacobs or Jamal Lewis would. How can someone at his size take that kind of beating?

Cadillac...especially after such a good rookie year
Posted on 9/19/11 at 11:36 pm to DelU249
Gruden wore him down, and all he got out of it was a home playoff loss.

Even in college, I seem to remember Cadillac getting injured more than Brown. If I remember right, Cadillac broke his collar bone against Bama late in the 2001 season. In 2002 he got off to a great start but broke his ankle against Florida? Brown only missed time in '03 with a hamstring but Cadillac stayed healthy that year.
I guess I'd say Cadillac has been a bigger disappointment. Brown has produced more and has also seen his fair share of missed time due to injuries in his NFL career.
