Name a former player from your team who disappointed you in the NFL

[SonnyCID]

I was disappointed that Steve Emtman couldn't stay healthy. Starting to feel the same was about Locker.

I was disappointed that Reggie Williams never caught on.

But I was disappointed most by Jeremy Stevens. Because it was my NFL team that had drafted him and he just wasted his talent.

 

[Broseidon]

Vince Young. He came into the league a few years too soon. He was made for the zone read.

 

[ForkEmBucky]

Monte Ball ain't exactly tearing it up and seems to have a problem holding on to the ball...but I still have hope for him to help my Donks.

Aside frome the fumbles, which he'll get over, he's been starting to make some splashes in the endzone. Think we can hold off on this one for awhile...

 

[TDs3nOut]

Vince Young. He came into the league a few years too soon. He was made for the zone read.

That's an interesting point about VY. At the same time, seems to me that his biggest problems in the NFL were more about his behavior than how he played.

 

[broncosmitty]

closest one for us is Kyle Wilson, I thought he'd be a shutdown corner in the NFL

but he's been a disappointment, gets burned on occasion with the Jets, and I don't think he's higher than 3rd on the depth chart. Maybe its because its the Jets

Uhhhhhh... Titus Young!?!

You make it sound like he's dead. Someone would stick him in their zone read offense right now if they thought he could excel.

 

[TexasMan]

Beanie, just couldn't stay healthy

He couldn't hold on to the ball either.

but Vernon Gholston has to be a bigger recent disappointment than Wells.

 

[pitman]

Uhhhhhh... Titus Young!?!

Young Just couldn't keep his mouth shut and let his playing do the talking.

Ricky Williams

Apparent to me that Green Bay should have kept VY. Flynn is a grease fire, I have NO IDEA why teams keep signing him. He's useless.

 

[Wild Turkey]

Lawyer Tillman

Ricky Williams

Ricky was good. I can think of many other Texas players who were horrible in the NFL. Like a couple of QB's off the top of my head.

 

[occupant]

Don't know if he's been mentioned...but mine would have to be Bosworth.

I guess he couldn't ship roids up to Seattle.

 

[55briggs]

REX Grossman and Cade McCnown, also Curtis Enus and Rashan Salam.

 

[Great Dayne]

As a Badger fan this is easy, it's all the former Badgers RB's from 1995-present with the exception of Michael Bennet. I believe the failures of Badger RB's is obviously the excellent run blocking system/coaching/O-line. Dayne went from one of the greatest to mediocre in College. PJ Hill and Calhoun barely even played in the NFL. Not sure if Anthony Davis ever made a practice squad. Bennet was an excellent pro bowl caliber RB for 2-3 years but injuries caught up with him. It helped that he ran a 4.2 40 time.

 

[starbigd]

I never thought Dayne was great, not even in college. He was just bigger than everyone else he played against. Guys like him don't have a chance in the NFL, too easy to hit.

Flynn is making BANK!

Flynn is making BANK!

Greatest agent ever

Sounds just like Roy Williams.

Sounds just like Roy Williams.

WRs are different. If you're huge at RB, you're easy to tackle. If you're huge at WR, you're harder to tackle. CBs typically aren't that big in the NFL......but DL and LBs had a field day with Dayne.
