    I absolutely agree with all of these but Chris Houston. I think Russell and Thomas are going to be Hit or Miss and you can have another Byron Leftwich and Robert Gallery or you can have a Vince Young and a D'Brickashaw Ferguson. Its a dangerous call.

    I think Greg Olsen and Jamaal Anderson are talented but good workouts and a couple of nice highlight reels are blowing their draft values out of proportion.

    Enjoy!

    I totally agree with Greg Olson as a bust. He disapeared in some games and was lackluster or getting blown off the line in others. A few highlight plays........forget it, stay away from him!!

    I don't think that Greg Olsen will become a flat out "bust", but I do think that he won't be a Pro Bowl TE such as Jeremy Shockey. His workout numbers have him going higher than he should IMO.

    As for Chris Houston, the more I see and read, the more I dislike him. I think he has the potential to fall into late round 1 and I really hope we stay away. He seems like a workout warrior. Reminds me a bit of Chris Houston and NOT just because they both are from Arkansas...

    I think Russell will make it the NFL, but I definately see a some bust potential there... Especially if he goes to Oakland...

    I don't think Joe Thomas will become a bust.. I don't see it in Jamal Anderson either

    I agree with him on Olsen, don't think he will be able to break many tackles at the next level. Chris Houston could be another Ahmad "batman Carrol. Which is scary. Jamaal Anderson has these big games but then disappears against top competition so he is an enigma also.
