Jones and Adams are the two biggest candidates I feel. Just the nature of the beast with safeties and TT doesn't have a good track record with DL.

King does have the makings of a bust; has all the measurables and he didn't play as well as the measurables. Hopefully he gets coathd up and excelsTERD Buckley over Troy Vincent, Robert Ferguson over Chris Chambers, Kevn King instead of TJ Watt, and now, RICH GANNON, over JIMMY JIMMY JIMMY LEONARD. Thank you FLOWER

He was also a fine college player. He was not all Combine and no film nor production. That performance just vaulted him too high.Originally posted by smuggler View PostMike Mamula wasn't even a true bust by draft standards. He was decent but had a short career. Not worth his selection but not garbage, either.Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

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.Originally posted by pbmax View PostHe was also a fine college player. He was not all Combine and no film nor production.

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.

Yeah, that's my guess too. The Bretsky Curse combined with the Ricky Elmore Comparison.Originally posted by Fritz View PostI'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.No longer the member of any fan clubs. I'm tired of jinxing players out of the league and into obscurity.
