http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2006/football/nfl/specials/draft/2006/04/21/pauline.overrated/?cnn=yes I agree with everbody on the list except for Croyle and Hester.Other than them i doubt anybody on that list will live up to expectations.I hope im wrong about Harris cause I like him but Dts comin out of the U have been horrible, the last Miami Dt to live up expections has been Warren Sapp.
10. Darnell Bing, S, USC: An intimidating hitter in the middle of the field, Bing is a small area defender with marginal technique and ball skills. wrong. you can teach that you cant teach how to jack someone up. 7. Orien Harris, DT, Miami: Harris never lived up to expectations at Miami and is an inconsistent lineman. exactly. just like some many others.... btw, jets draft in your sig is verrry nice, cept they will go OL in there somewere.
yea that threw me off too... but i found it funny how this guy is calling the most likely to be bust.. before any of them are even drafted and in a scheme.. any of these guys could end up in a system that would make them thrive.. so you never know.
This writers retarded. Besides the fact everything he wrote was crap and made no sense he said Orien Harris is a "number 2 tackle". What the hell theres either a NT or 3tech DT not a "number 2 tackle" hes sounds like such a dumbass sayin that.
Greg Lee? If this guy goes to a coach that can help get his head in the game this kid will be an animal. He has the talent to be a #1... at worst a #2 in the league but could be the next TO. If he goes to Dallas, either New York teams, New England, et al he could reach his max potential easily.
Now that i think about this guy didnt write his article clearly enough, i just agree with some picks he chose, didnt really read what he wrote about the players.Its true if u are in the right system u can be good. The players i question if they will be good are Bing,Byrd and Josepth.
Bing can be great provided hes put in the right scheme (like ours this year), but if hes taken by team that runs a defense that exposes him in coverage (like ours last year) he will never achieve his full potential. And his ball skills are great, this writer has no idea what hes talking about
I find it funny that his list of busts was littered with plenty of people that are considered day 2 picks with Bing being the only player with a chance of being a 1st rounder.
I thought that was a weak list also. Atleast go all out and say one of the following will be a bust Bush, Lienart, Ferg, M Williams, Hawk. will stink one of them will definitley will be a bust so go all out, I guess they are chicken, if I had to pick a bust it would be......I guess I am a chicken but Hawk seems to fit the mold now I am waiting for the top 5 busts(New York Mick) whenever that will happen
I don't think you need to go to that extreme, but predicting round 3-5 prospects as busts isn't exactly going out on a limb.
