Boom, Bust, or Meh

Recommended Posts

Another fun, pointless exercise to partake in as we come down off the draft high. Who booms, who busts, or who is just meh?

 

The criteria:

1. BOOM - Significant contributor, Pro Bowl-type, sees 2nd contract with original team.

2. MEH - Valued contributor, decent player, has potential to be resigned.

3. BUST - Insignificant contributor, poor player, doesn't see 2nd contract with original team.

 

1. Carolina Panthers (from Bears): Bryce Young, QB (Alabama) - 
2. Houston Texans: C.J. Stroud, QB (Ohio State) - 
3. Houston Texans (from Cardinals): Will Anderson Jr., LB (Alabama) -

second contract with original team for boom is key, plenty of players i see as being boom potential with a different team that dont re-sign with the one theyre drafted to

”poor player” for bust is harsh when really it could be injuries, significant system/staff changes, or other factors that lead a player to be a bust or at least not contribute and certainly those factors are important in determining whether a player resigns. So just because a player doesnt resign with their drafted team I think labeling that player a bust is harsh.

that said:

I mean, this is when positivity for most of these guys is running it's highest.  Hard to predict who has trouble transitioning at times.

Still overall a little optimistic picking a bit few on the bust side. And of course having my own personal bias for the players my team took.
