most overrated player in NFL history

[top dawg]

Being that we have nothing else to talk about, what player is the biggest bust in NFL history? Don't cheat by looking at a list. Come off the top of your head.

I am thinking Tony Mandarich.

Michael Irvin

Edit: Wait. Is this the most overrated player in NFL history or biggest draft bust?

Rae Carruth comes to mind, so does Ryan Leaf. At least Leaf didn't off a pregnant woman carrying his kid.

Alex Smith set the 49ers back pretty far, but that can be said for any #1 overall QB that was a bust.

Ok then, Ryan Leaf.

tim couch was a huge flop

Brian Bosworth he even got busted for DUI over the weekend!

Ok, I cheated a little bit with this answer, with the help of google.... but Desmond Howard, and Charlie Rodgers had completely slipped my mind.

They certainly achieved embarrassingly below what was expected.

woww, the 1989 draft had a shitload of talent. THe first 5 picks were

1. Troy Aikman

2. Tony Mandarich

3. Barry Sanders

4. Derrick Thomas

5. Deion Sanders

I can see why he'd be considered a bust.
