re: 04 Auburn backfield had 3 of the bigger 1st round NFL busts...

He was a clear starter in 2011. Oakland had a really good rushing attack with McFadden (until he got injured) and Michael Bush. Jacobs Ford was alright as a receiver and Darius Heyward Bey couldn't catch a cold. Surpsingly, Denarius Moore, an UDFA if I remember, was one of the best receivers. Oakland could have made the playoffs, but they lost 4 of the last 5, and choked against San Diego at home, which put Tebw and the Broncos in the playoffs.

Yep, 10 years

Who was the dumbass coach who drafted Brown anyway?

Where do yall find these people ?

lol, Jason Campbell won a lot of games and played a decade in the NFL.

Ronnie Brown revolutionized the game and was productive and played a decade in the NFL.

Cadillac got off to a great start before his career being derailed by injuries and an abominable offensive line.

Carlos Rogers played for a decade made the Pro Bowl and was All-Pro.

Despite your poor troll they were still the core players on the best SEC team in at least the last 30 years.

What'd bama look like around that time? I barely remember playing them.

I wouldn't call Jason Campbell a bust. He was on some bad teams and still was a pretty decent player. Ronnie Brown got stuck running the wildcat most of the time, not his fault. Cadillac is a bust.

Between Williams, Brown, Campbell, and Rogers... you've got 334 starts, 2 pro bowls, plus an "NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year" award.

Campbell had nearly 17,000 yards passing
Williams had 4,000 yards rushing
Brown had 5,000 yards rushing
Rogers had 17 interceptions (2 returned for a TD)

Both Brown and Williams finished their careers with more than double the rushing yards of Trent Richardson.

At his current pace, Mark Ingram will need another 2 seasons to pass Williams... and another four seasons to pass Brown in career rushing yards.


While none of those Auburn stars will ever be hall of famers, to say they were "busts" is a bit of a stretch.
