^lol. I'm back-and-forth. In any case, I don't think he's that great. Serviceable, mobile, but not great.

Re: Players who "had bust written all over them"

I'd like to throw Percy Harvin into the looks like a bust list from this year's draft. I just don't see how an injury prone gadget player without a true position will ever find a home in the NFL, especially without a decent QB to get him the ball. Not to mention his attitude and off the field problems. If Percy Harvin is playing in the NFL in 4 years, I'll eat my hat.

After a somewhat slow start, he's been quite productive (26 sacks over the last two years).
or u forgot, that home town "Franchise" quarterback, I forget his name is he even a starter anymore

Nnamdi Asomugha was considered a huge reach and an undrafted prospect...he turned out pretty damn good.

Re: Players who "had bust written all over them"

I called Jamarcus(spelling?) Russel as being a bust, and I told everyone who talked to me about it that he would be. Everyone just made such a big deal about his arm strength and the great game he had against a awful and slow ND defense. Obviously he still has some time to prove me wrong, but it isnt looking too good if you ask me.

I think a lot of people had Aaron Rodgers failing with the Packers, but after his first season as the starting QB he didn't look too bad. Especially after dropping in the draft, no one expected him to be nothing more than another QB who sat behind in Brett Favre.
