Yeah Manziel was just on the list bc he such a popular name, most think of him less as a bust and more as just a fuck up that was drafted too high.
Mingo never had a true position for most of his career, basically like he just didn't have the right fit but lasted longer than most. Warren was another guy that lasted a long time in the league but his peak was just not very good.
Couch the biggest bust on this list.
Gilbert was an awful pick.
Trent Richardson had that great rookie year but than drastically just fell apart. Body broke down so not a typical "bust" pick but he just had so many expectations after the Heisman and that rookie year.
Mingo...yeah, he had a pass rushers build, but no bend, no moves. He was athletic enough to play off the ball, but no feel for it....his athleticism extended his career longer than normal for a guy making so few plays.
TR...didn't he get fat, kind of lost interest in football?
Gilbert was an awful pick and Tomlin followed CLE, thinking PIT could get something out of him...only played 3 seasons.
