31 members have voted

  1. 1. The most disappointing early 1st rd WR rookie season goes to:

    • John Ross CIN
    • Tavon Austin STL
    • Mike Williams DET
    • Charles Rogers DET
    • Kevin White CHI

So let me get this straight.  He practices fully every week.  Never on the injury report.  Then disappears on IR with the same shoulder injury that sidelined him during camp?

What in the world is going on here?

I mean....You don't get much worse as a rookie.

At least there's some hope (like Perriman after his rookie year) that there's still something there.  He didn't play every game and totally suck.  We just never got to see him play.

I'm not familiar with Charles Rogers and Mike Williams rookie seasons but Tavon Austin doesn't even come close to the level of disappointment in his rookie year like John Ross this year.

Disappointing? Sure. But John Ross literally only had one touch that resulted in a fumble. Tavon caught 40 balls and had 6 total TDs his rookie year.

Agreed. It's way too early to consider him a bust. Insanely too early. What ever happened to the 3 year rule?  All of a sudden it's cool to destroy rookies and call them busts after a few games. I thought we established how goofy that line of thinking was.

Only logical explanation is that it was Marvin Lewis in the Library with the candlestick...

Oooof. I knew he had a rough start, but I didn’t realize it was that bad.

Treadwell should be an option in the poll as well.

Only reason I didn’t add him was he was in 20’s.  Those 4 were top 10 IIRC.   Fair comp season wise though.
