Nope. LSU will always have the biggest bust in history.

Big difference in being injured so you cant play up to potential and eating your way out of a job that you didn't deserve in the first place.

Haha fricking retard. Was JaMarcus battling injuries or was he drinking the lean? Do you know anything about a microfracture surgery? Clearly not,when you post bullshite like this. Stop making the LSU fan base look like idiots.

They put him at LB and put him in coverage.

Dude needs to be on the end rushing QBs all the time.

Only on the Rant would someone be called a bust for being injured for nearly 1.5 of their 2 seasons in the NFL.

Hard to get sacks when you're not even in pads.

Not the same category, since Jamarcus was essentially a fat slob and clowney just can't stay healthy.

However, at the end of the day, he is a number one pick who has provided minuscule production for a high price tag. He will never be on Jamarcus's level, but he has so dramatically underperformed vs expectations that he has to be considered a minor bust at this point.

What the hell happened with JaMarcus? I remember dreading when he played against Auburn.

JaMarcus was by far the bigger bust, but clowney was over rated and had lots or warning signs around him before he was signed.
He may be injury prone and that is the reason he could not stay on the field in college or the pros.

Clowney seems to be very injury prone.

The good news for Texans fans is that he wanted to play and was upset that he wasn't allowed to play. The bad news is that he is always sitting out practice with some type of injury.

I think O'Brien has the rule where you need to practice in order to play. Clowney will learn that he needs to practice also...

Clowney's bad attitude was apparent in college. He may as well have sat out his Senior year. He just got so over hyped as a result of one big hit.

Jamarcus helped Oakland get revenge on Jon gruden, so evidence suggest there was something.

Jamarcus Russell made Jon gruden quit.

Jon gruden was heading to the playoffs if Jon gruden beats Oakland. Jamarcus Russell leads Oakland to a win over Jon gruden and Jon gruden misses the playoffs and is fired by Tampa bay.

It's the Texans own fault. They bought into the hype of ONE great play.

Jamarcus Russell made Jon gruden quit coaching. That is more impressive than making urban Meyer quit coaching.

It's damn near impossible to be a bigger bust than Jamarcus

Clowney is certainly more of a prima donna than Russell was. Clowney even started with the drama mid season of his junior year at USCe.
