With the draft coming up this week it's time to address the biggest SEC busts in NFL history.

Jamarcus Russell-LSU (2007 Draft Round 1 Pick 1)
Tim Couch-UK (1999 Draft Round 1 Pick 1)
Heath Shuler-Tenn (1994 Draft Round 1 Pick 3)
Keith McCants-Bama (1990 Draft Round 1 Pick 4)
Aundray Bruce-AU (1988 Draft Round 1 Pick 1)
Dewayne Robertson-UK (2003 Draft Round 1 Pick 4)
Troy Williamson-USC (2005 Round 1 Pick 7)

Who else belongs on this list?

I'm still waiting to see if this "Cam Newton" fellow pans out. 1st pick last year, and he may not pan out.

J. Russell has to be the costliest, he got major paid, and didn't do a damn thing.

Anybody remember Jimmy Johnson took John Avery in the 1st round in 1998?

Searching for the right emoticon. Nothing really sums up my feelings. I laughed a bit, but then hated myself for it. We need a laugh/shame emoticon.

wasn't he kinda good for a year or two?

anyway, there are a lot of first round picks that don't turn out - to be in the biggest ever category you probably have to be an early pick and/or do really embarrassing stuff off the field

Rolando McClain was a lot closer to that than Carnell Williams IMO - he was the guy who hammed it up for the camera when he was arrested right?

He's been banged up for his career. He's an average RB in the NFL, but thats typical with NFL RB's recently

He was good until he completely destroyed his knee.

The more detrimental injury was to Ronnie. He was a pro bowler before the knee surgery.
