Biggest sports disappointment/bust

Recommended Posts

Guest El Satanico
Booty went to the draft after losing his starting position and went in the sixth round. AFAIK, he's still on the practice squad somewhere.

He's currently with Cleveland as third string/practice squad qb

Thomas Jones, RB, Arizona Cardinals -- He was picked No. 6 overall, and hasn't done anything since. He's constantly battling just to be the starting tailback on a sorry running team. The only good game I remember him having was against the Seahawks this year when he had 173 yards.

Thomas Jones will leave Arizona, and become a All-Pro. It happened to Hearst and Rice.

So does that mean Jake Plummer will be an All-Pro after he leaves? By the way, would Plummer count as a bust? He wasn't drafted high, but he did sign a huge contract.

Tony Mandarich..Green Bay Packers #1 draft choice in 89/90, i forget which...turned out to be pathetic beyond words!! It probably set the current Titletown dynasty back 5 years. :angry:

Bo Jackson.

 

As a Raiders fan, it pained me to see Bo go down and be forced to retire from sports when he had so much more to offer. Bo could have been one of the best atheletes of all time but we will never know for sure what he could have been.

Probably, and Yes. People thought he would be the next Montana, after he was drafted. Plumber not living up the huge signing bonus, also makes him a flop.
