It is a fun exercise to go through these guys and the org, swap the QB in question with Brady, and ask if they would have won anything. I think Tua has a chance despite the assness that is the Dolphins org. They have a great coach presently.Originally Posted by Joemailman
My other take away is don't draft guys from small schools. Who in their right mind didn't think/know Blake Bortles was gonna be a bust? It was so obvious.
I have never considered Bortles a bust.....not compared to a lot of the names on that list. Bortles played in an AFCC game and should have won it if not for the officials deciding that Brady deserves every clutch penalty. To be honest if you called the Bortles bust ahead of time you are in the 1% since he was a consensus top 3 pick. I don't quite get why this guy wasn't given more shots ala Carr, Jimmy G and that ilk. He was every bit as good as they were.

I wouldn't know that because I never tested the theory.....

2 points to make. Goff and Burrow were both IN the Owl so thats something. Also since only ONE team wins an Owl annually this list is bound to skew a certain way. However even those 2 points don't change the fact that this list is at least half epic BUST.
