True. He had 13.5 sacks his senior year at BC, and in his best year for PHI has 8.5. Lasted 5 years, so he wasn't a complete washout, just overdrafted at #7. Plus Philly paid a lot to move up and draft him.
BTW, I wonder if he was playing out of position as a 6'5" 250 DE, and would've been better off playing OLB in a 3-4.
Mamula was a starter from day 1, and remained so for his entire career when healthy enough. Injuries greatly impacted and then ended his career. His team voted him to the "courage" award after coming back from an entirely missed season, but more injuries followed. He retired before completely destroying his body. This is a guy who scored 49/50 on the Wonderlic, so I suspect it was a well-reasoned decision for his future.
Not a work-out warrior type of bust at all, 31.5 sacks in 64 starts.
i'll say our 4th pick biegel will be the bust. if anyone from the 5th round on fails it's not that big a deal.
I'm going with Biegel. One of those guys who probably has already reached his ceiling, and now he's playing against guys who are much, much better.
