No it really does.
Although maybe I should have specified for you. Out of all RBs that have gotten more than 500 carries in their NFL career, Trent Richardson is the second worst of all time.

Jamarcus beat Jon gruden when Jon gruden was 1 game away from the playoffs. Jon gruden is in the Monday night football booth because of Jamarcus. Jamarcus made Jon gruden quit.

Jamarcus made Jon gruden quit because Jamarcus kept Jon gruden from making the playoffs. Jamarcus made Jon gruden quit

Jamarcus made Jon gruden quit by keeping him from the playoffs and was the reason Jon gruden was fired.

You do know who made Jon gruden quit, Jamarcus Russell.

Not so fast, my friend. Aubie doesn't escape unscathed in this discussion.

Aundray Bruce played in the NFL for 11 years and had over 30 sacks. Not worthy of a #1 pick but he had a solid NFL career as a good role player. A bust because of where he was drafted, but not even in the same league of busts as the guys you mentioned. Much better NFL player than Trent has even dreamed of being so far.

i remember when he was dealt to Colts.
i laughed at the 1st rounder and posted the tweet where sevral GM's claimed they wouldn't of given a 4th rounder for him.
gumps were mad, the down votes came a plenty.

4.3 yards per carry
as good as Mark Ingram
so yes

Which, by definition, is what makes a bust a bust.

So then Trent Richardson is both a bust and a shitty player while Aundray Bruce is just a busy? Gotcha

I used Trent on my fantasy team last year for a few weeks with moderate success.
I had drafted both AP and Ray Rice last year and then of course, that ended up being really bad luck.
I had to do some picking off the waiver wire, and Mark Ingram ended up being a good RB for me. During the weeks he was injured, I picked up TR and he did pretty decent for me in those weeks.
By no means a huge star or anything, but respectable fantasy points in the 10pt range.
Then he dropped off again for some reason, ended up being cut at the end etc.
I still believe he can turn it around. He's not the biggest bust ever, but it's damn sure one of the biggest head scratchers.

Well if I am a GM and have a RB I think is good, I'm not gonna draft another RB in the top 10...
It is my understanding that your shift manager does not even trust you to run the fry station at burger king. And here you are talking about what you would do as an NFL GM.

Yes but Trent Richardson is the biggest bust in NFL history.
4 pages in, & no one suggested Steve Emtman from '92...
If I remember right , Colts picked 2 busts in top 5 that year- Emtman and Quintin Coryat.
JaMarcus is up there with biggest busts, but he didn't exactly get any help. Top worst Oline, no WR at ALL.
A DL is on frontlines, thus has more control over his output. Bigger bust.

Bruce had very little hype for a #1. 1988 was actually one of the strangest drafts. There was no consensus on who the top picks were. In fact many scouts went on record as saying the talent was so weak that year there was nothing but second and third rounders to pick from, and most still consider it the weakest draft ever. The Falcons settled on Bruce because he was a hometown kid at a position of need, not because anyone expected him to be the next Lawrence Taylor. Bo and Cam on the other hand, were as hyped as you can get and absolute locks as #1.

Trent is the biggest RB bust of all time. Not even sure who would be second. Very strange because I though the was cant miss. Still has a chance to turn it around

Jamarcus Russell is the biggest bust of all-time. That's not really debatable. A first overall pick that washed out inside of four years.
