Bo only played 7 games in his first year and 10 games the other 3 years. He wasn't playing full seasons. Nor was he at training and practice like the rest of the team.

He was busy being the best athlete anyone had ever seen.
I don't think anyone is disputing is athletic prowess. His value to the Raiders is what is being a questioned because he could only compete for a limited amount of time.

How can that be considered a bust? The Raiders knew exactly what Bo was going to do and that was play baseball. Al knew the exact amount of time he would get out of Bo so the expectations were on the table as far as the time he had there.

If you are talking about the injury, are we including a career ending injury into the bust category? I think that is ridiculous. Bust is a negative term on a players expectation of skill. If he has a career ended by an injury but had success before the injury then he is a bust? I'm sorry that makes no sense.
