We talking NFL or college? College Fournette was at least as good as college Henry. Henry had a better OL and defense, and Miles'
offense was incredibly predictable that last season. Anyone being honest knows that Leonard was a beast, especially before he injured his ankle.

Well I I’ll be. An LSU fan that so often wants to talk about NFL suddenly wants to talk about college accomplishments.

That aside, all I know for sure is that Fournette was an average running back vs my team. I think he ran for like 31 yards one game and 35 yards in another. I remember LSU fans touting him the Heisman front runner one of those games and by the time it was over Derrick Henry was the Heisman lock.

Henry didn't make him look like a high schooler. The Bama defense did.

Don't get me wrong; I was mistaken about Henry. He has had a much better pro career than Fournette, which I didn't expect, because of the way most RBs are used in the NFL. But, he's the size of a left tackle and has great speed; teams can't ignore that. He's also proven to be more durable than I expect a RB to be in the NFL.

Then again, Fournette has a Super Bowl ring.

Back to the original question, nobody will ever be more overrated than JaMarcus Russell. He's the biggest bust in NFL history.

GEAUX TIGERS!

The answer is actually Tyrus Thomas because other than a fluke Final 4 and relative to his draft position he really has nothing to show for his career

Brandon Bass had a more successful overall career and was a 2nd round pick for comparison (of that era)

One of the things that can make it hard to tell how big a bust a draft pick turns out is because the #1 pick goes to the worst team unless the pick was traded away. So it's rare that a #1 pick goes to a team with much around them.

Some teams, like the Bengals, do a good job building around their pick; others will just act like the #1 pick will solve all their problems and call it a day.

That said, Russell was a lot like Manziel in that it was his offseason work ethic/shenanigans that caused the issues rather than any lack of ability... but even if he hadn't, I'm not sure the Raiders were going to surround him with help for at least a few more years.

Isn't she the one who is C. Clarks bitch? And the only reason her name is recognizable is due to being Clarks bitch?

I had a friend in Middle School who once told a teammate "you're just here for defense and rebounds". Someone should tell her the same. Stick with what she does well (rebounding). Leave shooting to the rest of the team.

Bama had a great DL and LBs, and Miles ran the same running play 3 out of every 4 downs. Congrats.

She was top 30 in the league in scoring as a rookie, 34th in FG percentage. Not bad for first season as a pro.

In shooting percentage (regular season percentage/Rank), she was:

0-5 feet - 44.5% - 136th
5-9 feet - 11.1% - 131st
10-14 feet - 33.3% - 76th
15-19 feet - 35.7% - 76th

She's a clod on the court and loser in life. No humility or self-awareness whatsoever.
