Comparing Vince to Ryan Leaf is pretty ridiculous. Vince won Rookie of the Year and made two different pro bowls before poor decision making and Jeff Fisher (who I'm worried will do the same with Gurley) derailed his career. Russell was the #1 pick who never did anything, so he's in play, but I think Leaf is the clear number one bust.

I give Russell the edge over Leaf. He was the #1 pick. Leaf wasn't.

I think Radio could have had a decent career as a backup and guy who gets other chances to start if he had been professional about the Titans thing. He acted like a bitch and they cut him and he was horrendous in Philly. I think he just kind of mailed in the rest of his career after the Titans let him go. He wasn't that bad when he started in 09 and 10

A shitload better than Leaf and Russell for sure

Fisher didn't kill Young's career and neither did Young's attitude, though it certainly didn't help. Truth is, his accuracy was erratic and he wasn't smart enough to learn a full playbook and read defenses.
