FWIW, buddy of mine played with him at Auburn, said although incredibly gifted as an athlete was unfortunately not the sharpest tool in the drawer. Basically, Dye & Hall just told him to go after the ball and not worry about anything like assignments. Works good in college, not so much in the NFL.
Exactly why the Falcons putting him at middle linebacker was so damned laughable.

Can the 26th pick of the 2nd round of the NBA draft truly be labeled a "bust"?

I would say Batman Carroll over Matt Jones or Jamaal Anderson. Batman Carroll didn't produce much for being a 1st round pick. At least Anderson and Jones played for multiple seasons. Batman is most known for getting burned by Greg Lewis for 3 touchdowns against the Eagles. Jones and Anderson at least made some top 10 highlights.

Aundray Bruce was the #1 overall pick.
I guess he was not a total bust, however, expectations for first overll pick should be very high like NFL HOF.
He played several seasons, but certainly not a HOF career.

Good call. Although QB Steve Pisarkiewicz (drafted 19th overall by the St. Louis football Cardinals) is certainly in the running.
10 career games in 3 years. 3 TDs, 7 Int, 7 fumbles, 44.8% completions, 48.4 QBR.

Yes. Chris Porter was on the front cover of SI. He is def a bust.

Nick Saban... oh wait, they don't draft coaches.

The only thing I'll say in his defense is that it's not his fault the football Cardinals were complete dumbasses. No one had him rated that highly. It was a complete shock when he was drafted.
On the other hand, nearly everyone had Gabbert rated highly.

Jonathan Sullivan...sorry Saints fans
Looking like Jarvis Jones may end up on the list too if he can't get his act together.

Yes
It's not as if there are a lot of draft spots for the NBA, so they're pretty selective.

UK has you all beat with the #1 draft pick of Tim Couch.
Print the shirts. I still blame Cleveland for ruining him though.

I didn't pay attention to how he played this year. Was he that piss poor?

Jasper Sanks? Wtf, was he even drafted high. He was probably high when drafted though.

Alabama's has to be Trent Richardson. That dude is absolute garbage in the NFL

Actually it's been debated by national media that Jamarcus was a bigger bust ever surpassing Leaf
He absolutely was. At least Leaf made it onto another team.
