Per Ian Rapoport https://x.com/RapSheet/status/2041496812469551198?s=20 I am sure this thread will be fun

I’d argue Robinson is the biggest bust because of going number 2 overall never being good at any point and being far more famous for his exploits as a drug dealer after his career than a football player. But bortles played 8 years in the league, and at least had a couple of decent seasons, one of which included a playoff run that ended because of a very questionable call that favored the patriots. You could at least say there was some value to his career. I’d call manziel a bigger bust than bortles though because of the hype he got, the fact that Cleveland did have to give up a third round pick to get him at 22, and what a disaster he was off the field (and not good on it). Skipping concussion protocol where he was supposed to stay in Cleveland to go party in Vegas while wearing a fake mulllet, glasses, and a mustache thinking he wouldn’t get recognized at a casino and night club.

Bortles wasnt good, but I’d take his career 100 times out of 100 over Johnny. Johnny still deserves a bust label (much like Clausen even though he was a second rounder) due to the overhyping of the kipers of the world. lol and this guy too..

I thought this headline meant we were signing him. Might still be be better than XL

I would hope so. But that's purely hypothetical, he's still under contract with AZ and is likely going to be their starter. They gave Minshew 8.5 to be his backup.

Pie for the Howell content. The last time he took snaps in the NFL for Seattle, he went 5 of 14 for 24 yards, one INT and took 4 sacks. I don't know why there's this myth out there that he's this undiscovered gem. That said, Pickett is in the same boat of awful but at least we didn't have to trade anything for him. Still, I would have rather given his contract to Marcus Mariota who signed for 500k less to stay in Washington. At least Mariota has looked competent when relied on for a spot start here and there and has more of a veteran presence than someone who has only been in the league one year longer than Bryce has.

That's because PCL stands for posterior cruciate ligament. A patellar tendon is the actual tendon that connects the kneecap to the shinbone. Ickey ruptured his patellar tendon, not a torn PCL. Hence why the comparison of a torn PCL and ACL is not relevant to Ickey's situation.

It was not just an ACL tear, he dislocated his knee and had damage to other ligaments. There’s no telling whether he will be the same again in terms of health/speed at age 32.

Peyton manning??

Only because Justin Fields turned down a spot (seriously)

The guys who were ahead of him that got fired all coached at least 3 seasons.

Justin Fields was invited to the Pro Bowl and turned it down. You can’t make this stuff up. https://x.com/RapSheet/status/2018494298040242631

I don’t think that’s CM punk and it wouldn’t make much storyline sense with punk beating Breakker last month to retain the title. My guess is Logan Paul, who on Friday’s show claimed that they should make sure bron wins the match…and just happened to be sweating already when he made his rumble entrance several minutes after the attack.

Even his most ardent supporters on here said that they’d take him if he was willing to stay as a backup or possibly in a bridge role. Most of the banter around this board was about how dumb Fitterer/Rhule were for giving up multiple picks for him and then giving him a 5th year option without even seeing him play a down for us.

It was 5, (4 of them by Allen)…but who’s counting?

That was a thing at one time. Unsurprisingly, it did not attract any more attention, and the league abandoned it. Kinda like NASCAR changing their postseason rules every year, yet no one cares

It’s been a joke for a long time now. Tyler Huntley made it one year despite only starting 4 games with 2 TDS and 3 INTs.

Bryce can’t play for the AFC

I think they really believe they can compete in a short window with Rodgers and McCarthy is the one guy who he likely would play for. It’s completely delusional.

The steelers fans who chanted fire Tomlin because of his lack of success in the playoffs recently are getting what they deserve with McCarthy. Tomlin was getting teams to the playoffs with the corpses of Big Ben, Russell Wilson and Aaron Rodgers, the law firm of Trubisky/Pickett/Rudolph/Fields. Good luck getting that out of McCarthy

The 4 INT game Manning had was against the leagues number one defense in points scored and turnovers forced. It had four defensive starters that were all pros that season and one other pro bowler. That’s a little different than the 2025 version that was decent (11th in points allowed) with one pro bowler.
