I heard the the Scouts Inc or whatever that is on ESPN Insider had Sanchez rated as the 31st best QB in the NFL. Not too good for a top 5 draft pick.

hmmm I read somewhere that the Jets “fleeced” the browns in that trade

It’s pretty well documented that the Jets’ drafting past isn’t good, right?

Freeman McNeil was not like the rest of them.

Is there a hard and fast definition of what a bust actually is?

Look up “Erxleben” in the dictionary.

Went to college in Westminster, former home to Ravens training camp. Saw Ozzie at the Buffalo Wild Wings there. 12 hot wings + 3 Ketel One shots chased with tall Stellas in an hour or so. (He is a legit 6’2” and had very little interest in socializing with anyone there.)

I don’t blame him. I don’t want anyone talking to me when I’m eating wings either, and nobody wants my autograph.

there needs to be some kind of difference made between guys like Ryan Leaf and Kyle Brady, who was much more of a terrible pick than a terrible player.

Terrell Pryor?

Otherwise, spot-on though. Brady wasn’t as much a traditional bust (Leaf, KiJana Carter, etc.) as completely overdrafted.

So Mangenius was right?

/completely blew 3 second round picks that year

Kwame Brown

/throws cake

The Jets are a perfect marriage between an idiot fan base and an idiot front office. Made for one another.

I was thinking about this, but do the Jets have, at best, the 7th-best QB in their division? At this point, I’d take Brady, Fitzy, and probably Mallet, Hoyer, Matt Moore and Tannehill over Sanchez/Tebow. And Vince Young is lurking.

Far cry from Mark Sanchez being a Top 8 QB.

Then the Browns moved to Baltimore, Ozzie Newsome drafted Ray Lewis, Jonathan Ogden and 14 other Pro Bowlers, and the rest is history.

Newsome is the GD man.

Are you trying to say Kyle Brady wasn’t a bust because he was in the league for 13 years?

Kyle Brady was definitely not a bust. Underachieving for a #9 pick, yes. But he was a reach. Not always best way to compare…but…Brady averaged 20 catches/250yds/2.5 tds per season in college…he outperformed that in the NFL.

Kwame Brown? I don’t remember this NFL player. Someone help me out.

You can still be a top 10 pick and be in the league for 10+ years, you know that, right?
See Brown, Kwame.

You can still be a top 10 pick and be in the league for 10+ years, but most of them aren’t (hence that 6 year number). He was not a bust.

If you have irrational expectations about any draft choice your team makes regardless of context, well then of course he was a bust.

Ozzie did well at hitting HR on the first picks

He built a Super Bowl winning team with Trent Dilfer at QB. No small feat.

“Fullback…”
“OHHH NOOOOO!!!”

First Round Bust, Kyle Brady’s Career Length: 13 years

It’s not Brady’s fault the Jets drafted a freaking blocking TE in the top 10.
