          He's been 2 yrs in. Not a lot but with all the hype the was around him being a "freak" and being such a high pick. He's def a bust so far. Much like reggie bush is as well

                  Tyrone Calico! Holy crap - forgot about that guy. Man, he had a sick 40 time (4.4) and great height (6'3'' if I remember right). I figured he would've made it somewhere.
                  Charles Rogers comes to mind...
                  Dang, there's so many every year.

                  Jerry Porter definitly is the epitome of a guy that had the stars allign and have the world be his oyster - and then get made 'inactive'. He had fringe pro bowl talent. I think for fun I'll dig up some more names.

                  Haha - just looked over the 2002-2005 first round drafts - there's TONS.
                  One guy that just hasnt overcome injuries or develop like I thought he would was Ben Troupe of the Titans. He looked like a great TE prospect - but never has really done anything.

                    I used to think Calico was going to be my fantasy football sleeper every year.

                              Wouldnt call bush a bust yet, but 3-4 more years at this pace and he will be there.

                                    tony mandarich, for you youngsters, he was the top pick in 89 or 90 i believe, big o-lineman from michigan state, made the cover of SI for his eating regimen, he was supposed to become the best all time lineman in history, he lasted a few yrs in green bay and sucked

                                      the thing about reggie is that the hype was so high that theres really no way to live up to it, hes only 2 yrs in the league and even if he puts together a nice career, which i think he will, he will always be considered a bust because the hype was so crazy high
