The 2017 Jags are one of the biggest one year wonders in history. They almost made it to the Super Bowl and fell off a cliff the next year. That's why Bortles and Fournette don't get lumped with busts like Leaf and Russell.
I’m convinced Kevin White would have become one of the better receivers in the NFL had he not gotten injured so much. He had all the tools and showed many flashes in his very limited playing time.
He was a special teams demon for the Saints as a gunner. But yeah, injuries completely derailed him and he lost his confidence. Pity, too. I really enjoyed him in the black and gold.
The draft really is a crap shoot. The experts always talk about the can't miss pick, yet most of them miss. By the way, Jacksonville is still looking for a QB. They don't realize it, though.
Absolutely. They're running out of people to blame for Lawrence's poor decisions and struggles to hold onto the damn football. Jax inexplicably made him 1 of the highest paid players ever despite his 22-37 overall record while throwing 69(nice) touchdowns to go with 45 interceptions, 36 fumbles and about to miss the playoffs for the 3rd season out of 4 with Trevor under center despite what many would agree is one of the most talented overall rosters in the entire NFL. We can't blame all of this on Urban Meyer can we?????
Stating the obvious, but Football is such a brutal sport. You become your HS star, make it through college, sometimes coming back from horrible injuries when you're basically still a kid, with massive expectations on your shoulders. Then you get to the NFL and that's when you need to show you can succeed (and hope your body holds up). Oof.
Dwayne Jarrett was like their last big receiver, Mike Williams. Big and slow, dominated college but couldn't translate. On another note, as a Steelers fan, I had high hopes for Limas Sweed and he broke my heart.
As a 9ers fan the name that stands out to me is Rashawn Woods...So much hype and potential...I was young and didn't understand how a 1st round draft pick can be so mediocre.
@@saintarmstrong8790 I'm sorry I pointed out you couldn't pass freshman algebra. Also I'm not sure if you understand what "prominent" meant, if this is a video about FORGOTTEN draft bust, but Akili Smith isn't FORGOTTEN about, he would be "prominent". Are you understanding now? or should I type at a 5th grade level? If I wasnt BORN and know who he is, he isn't forgotten is he?
@@saintarmstrong8790 I own several of them, and in aggregate yeah I'm probably doing better than you. Goodluck with your gym workouts though lil guy. Maybe one day your family will respect you. Now go listen to some Colter Wall and relax. I don't have more attention for you
McMahon in Chicago… Trent Dilfer in Baltimore, BRAD JOHNSON with the Bucs!!! It’s been so passengers lol Peyton Manning in Denver was a passenger as well, his arm was completely shot that year!!! And Big Ben went 14-1 his rookie year, his stats were pretty terrible if he wasn’t a rookie, Pittsburgh took him for a nice ride that year as well!!!
I’d put 1996 up there too. In 2007 there were good prospects to pick. The 96 draft didn’t even have that. One wasn’t even picked until the third round.
How was Blake Bortles a bust? 17,000 passing yards at over 100 touchdowns as well as an AFC championship game appearance? Maybe not an outstanding career, but certainly not a bust.
Na, Russel has more Wins better rating, yards, TD, completion %. He was bad. But Rosen, Akili Smith were both worse. As of now Trey Lance. Anothony Richardson are also worse. @@330wiz7
2nd rd is still high expectations and depending on position still the same as a 1st rd...like a rb ,kicker, and a few others would be a bust in the second
@ look at the team he played for lol most top picks goes to rebuilding teams. I mean no harm to your opinion but he’s not a bust. Just an average player.
@@BigGucciAli if most top picks go to top teams, and some of those picks transform a franchise how come Bortles couldn't do it? You don't take a guy third overall hoping he has a journeyman career
@ it’s Jacksonville lol. Most teams that do transform has a marketable base. They never had that even with their defense being the best thing in that AFC championship season. He’s not a bust bro
Bro...he literally was AWFUL, what are you talking about? Blew an AFC Championship game and got replaced by a 6th round pick LOL. Under your logic Charlie Batch is an all pro too! He has two rings.

@@thecomediankodybean A draft bust is a player who was highly touted or selected but doesn't meet expectations. Isn't that literally not living up to the hype? So he's not a bust, he just fits the definition of a player who played below expectations? Which is the exact same thing
Bortles was ass bro don’t let rose colored glasses fool you. And if the TD/INT ratio isn’t pushing 2/1 in any season you play you’re having a below average year at QB
@@saintarmstrong8790 I'm sorry that Blake Bortles creates movement in your pants. I don't care about your TD/Interception ratio if you're a loser. Also, I was being facetious. Under your logic Mark Sanchez isn't a bust either LOL
@@saintarmstrong8790Bortles was a bust bro not the biggest bust ever but a top 3 pick and 1st QB off the board should give you a little more than that. Defending him this vehemently with these points is crazy lmaooo
so what are they? Players who were drafted high and didn't do anything in the league are....a category of their own? It's not their fault their body failed them but its a busted pick
The 2017 Jags are one of the biggest one year wonders in history. They almost made it to the Super Bowl and fell off a cliff the next year. That's why Bortles and Fournette don't get lumped with busts like Leaf and Russell.
They should've made the SB. That was definitely a fumble and JAX ball.

19:16 you’re the first person I’ve ever heard say route running like “root running” it was a little jarring lol good video though sir!
as a broncos fan i remember ray having 1 random 4 sack game vs the Bengals and did nothing outside of that
pretty much yeah
During the Broncos SB run, the D-line depth was important. Non stop rushing the passer
It was so obvious that he was going to be a bust, even before he was drafted.
I forgot he was even a thing.
Daniel Jones nfl record 24-43

calling a guy who got drafted by the jets and still has a shot to be a decent qb is wild
Akili Smith.. Cade Mccown are the two that come to mind

Bortals made AFC championship I think I mean I wouldn't say he was a bust really
yeah if that was anything other than a massive fluke LOL, he ended up 27 and 51 as a starter. One lucky season doesn't save you
His defense carried him , he had a crappy nfl career.
I wouldn't call him a bust at all actually.
That's some nice stats.
@@Richie2394 27 and 51?
Give bortles his jock strap back. You smelling it too much 😷

bortles won me a lot of money my first yr laying dfs on fanduel, the stack with him allen rob and allen hurns was gold
Injuries do not equal bust..... some of these are unfair in my mind
If you play for 2 years and are out, you're a bust
Agreed
So Bo Jackson is a bust because he was injured? I agree with the original poster.
Fair is for judging pigs 🐖
This list is a bust
so is your mother but we keep her around, she put the bust in busted
This reply is so fucking lame, it's like a 13 y/o trying to be edgy. The list sucks and whoever runs this account is retarded. @@FootballLoreOfficial
Damn this guy got roasted😂
With a lot of these guys, you can't say a bust when injuries happen.
eh, I think you can. Everyone is at risk of injury
Risk is part of life...Greg Oden would have been a beast...he's a bust
@sethjackson2266 Just like mike williams and and robert Tanya, Robert gallery, right
I got a autographed dwayne jarrett usc jersey and i constanly gotta explain how nice he was and why i thought he was gonna be the truth

2007 was the worst draft for quarterbacks
I’d put 1996 up there too. In 2007 there were good prospects to pick. The 96 draft didn’t even have that. One wasn’t even picked until the third round.
2007 was not a great NFL year in general outside of 3-4 bright spots in the draft
But it was one of the best drafts for every other position

No coincidence that #1 is a dead ringer for Adam Sandler.

Harrell technically got a ring, that stings.
Poor Take, I don't consider Blake Bortles a bust at all, he was a solid starter, not a Pro Bowler, but he was solid...
Lost twice as many games as he won. But okay
Josh rosen is the biggest bust imo
Jamarcus Russel has entered the chat:
Na, Russel has more Wins better rating, yards, TD, completion %. He was bad. But Rosen, Akili Smith were both worse. As of now Trey Lance. Anothony Richardson are also worse. @@330wiz7

Bottles may be a bust but he has a hot wife and a kid.
Dude won in life
Since when did we consider people in the 2nd round a bust😂😂😂. Thumbs down
your IQ is room temperature.
2nd rd is still high expectations and depending on position still the same as a 1st rd...like a rb ,kicker, and a few others would be a bust in the second
1st to 3rd rounders underperforming is a bust.
Thinking a QB from Tulane is your Future is almost like thinking a QB from Wyoming is
lol
Josh Allen went to Wyoming...
EJ Manuel bigger bust than j.p losman imo
Blake Bortles made a conference championship game before Dak Prescott…..
You're saying that like Dak Prescott is good LOL
Bottles will Knot be disrespected
JP Losman was too cocky for his own good. He said he was better than Eli and Big Ben. He sucked
If they’re not the first round, you shouldn’t be talking about them as draft busts
Naw. Some positions are never or hardly ever 1st rd picks. A failure rb drafted in the 2nd is a bust.or a second rd kicker is a bust.
Stop this Blake Bortles slander now
No he sucked
Bortles not a bust if he had over 17k yards in passing. That’s pretty decent for his time in the league
27-54
