Not many true busts. Desmond Howard was a decent returner if I recall but I could be wrong, that was long ago and I was too young to remember this stuff well. Some have underperformed, others have outright been busts (Charles Rogers), others just never got anywhere (Peter Warrick). Westbrook had a mediocre career but only a couple really nice years.

Others have had amazing careers (honestly, Keyshawn may not have won things but he had a good career), and some are still going.

[Dpantherman]

Any person you draft #1 overall is a gamble. doesn't matter who it is, unless you can predict the future. Let the scouting begin, because that will ultimately decide who goes #1 overall, and none of this.

[Cat'sGrowl]

Detroit had two or three alone!!!

1 actually..

[ncbobcat]

fail

Yeah, my bad, all Detroit's WR busts weren't top all 5, but top 10. Point remains the same, lousy track record.

Your still failing hard..

1 actually..

I don't think Roy Williams is a total bust, but has he looked like a #1 overall pick? Not so much. Mike Williams, epic bust in Detroit.

[Cat'sGrowl]

Detroit's inability to develop Williams isn't really his fault.

Charles Rogers is the only true bust.

[ncbobcat]

Your opinion, he's looked okay in Dallas but has taken a back seat to a rookie.

[magnus]

Not Fairley. I'd look at the other leading candidates and see how they do at the combine and take it from there. But I've seen Fairley more than any of the other candidates besides Cam Newton and I know he's not the guy to take at #1.

so you watched somewhere in the neighborhood of one college football game and then you proceed to lecture us on who to take

[ncbobcat]

Roy Williams has taken a back seat to a rookie and looks better in Dallas, but no world beater. Where is Charles Rodgers?

FYI, just saying fail without a rebuttle is a fail unto itself.

Mike Williams had to get all kinds of second chances before becoming somewhat decent.
