The Best That Never Was

[rossyb83]

Just finished watching the ESPN film about Marcus Dupree, a fantastic young running back who looked as though he may have been the greatest running back ever had he made better decisions, had better people around him and had had a better attitude. Its a sad story and it makes you wonder how many great young athletes that may have been NFL legends and game changers had they made it there but for one reason or another they never make it; injuries, attitude, crime.....

I am thinking may i will do a CC with a Marcus Dupree that made better decisions

Or a Brian Banks that made a Seattle roster following his false imprisonment.

How many other guys like this are there?

Jamarcus Russell if he wasn't fat, lazy, and unwilling to put in the time to make himself as good as he should have been.

Jamarcus Russell had like, one of the best skill sets for a QB like ever, epic arm strength, mobility, throw on the run, accuracy, etc. Yet he just didn't care about being good.

I believe he could have been a beast in the NFL.
