I don't think it's as much of them being busts as it is them being drafted higher than their actual talent. And that's not an insult, it's an observation.
When running behind the Bama OL, the defenses get worn out and these guys are able to break big runs. Basically it's hard for scouts to figure out if it's the RB that's good or the OL that's good or a combo of both.

WoW, really whats the point? BTW what have you done in CFB and the NFL? 
Posted on 9/12/17 at 9:33 am to PurpleandGeauld
I never said this. I said it when mattered the most Henry came through and Fornette choked. You guys can live vicariously through the NFL all you want. It will never change the fact that when Henry was called upon to carry his team he came through. When Fornette was needed the most he failed. No matter what happens in the NFL, this will still be true. Whatever makes you fell better, but anybody with a little sense can see it for what it truly it is. Losers attempting to make themselves feel better about losing in the past. It is pathetic really.

Sean Peyton is a shitty coach and don't give carries.
Henry shares carries with DeMarco Murray who was given a large contract.
Lacy has one of the worst OLs in football. Seattle's 2nd best OL and Starting LT is out for the year.
What are these, facts? LSU fans can't fap to this.

Sounds a bit like defensive people using the past to try and talk present day...

You're right. Anyone with a little sense can see that Fournette is a better running back than Henry.
ETA: That doesn't mean Henry isn't a good back. Just wanted to clarify that before anyone got butthurt.

Seriously? it means he didn't win sort of team championship or any personal awards (i don't know if that is true about LF but just saying that is what hardware means if you weren't familiar with that saying).

Isn't that more yards per carry than Fournette had this weekend?

It's a verifiable fact and is all over fantasy sites and the like. He faced 8+ in the box something like 60% of the time.

How many TDs did Henry have? I didn't watch
Posted on 9/12/17 at 9:46 am to OldPete
For the life of me, I can't figure out why the Titans stopped giving Henry the ball in the second half. He got one touch on the first possession, and that was it.

Does it sounding familiar somehow make it untrue?

Julio is one of only 2 WRs in NFL history to get to 500 career catches in 80 games. He's got the NFL record for rec YPG average over a career. OBJ, while a phenomenal talent, is a straight up head case whose yards per game have gone down every year he's been in the league.
Let see how he compares to Julio when he's 7 years in like Julio is.

Oh ok. I'm sure Yeldon wouldn't trade those for that top 5 pick money or that starting job. He'll always have that ring to hock.
