I’ll order the depth chart as if each player met my expectations, also do my best to make it not all first rounders (but there’ll be a lot). Not all straight busts, but all massive disappointments IMO.

WR: Dorial Green-Beckham, Devante Parker, Phillip Dorsett, Hakeem Butler, Andy Isabella, Slade Bolden

TE: OJ Howard, Tyler Eifert, Harrison Bryant

LT: Greg Robinson, Luke Joeckel

LG: Jonathan Cooper, Robert Gallery, Barrett Jones

C : Weston Richburg, Billy Price

RG: Chance Warmack

RT: Gabe Carimi, La’El Collins

EDGE: Jadeveon Clowney, Joey Bosa, Ziggy Ansah, Courtney Upshaw, Vic Beasley, Jordan Willis

DT: Glenn Dorsey, Dontari Poe, Ra’Shede Hageman, Robert Nkemdiche, Timmy Jernigan

LBer: Aaron Curry, Playboi Keith Rivers, Rolando McClain, Myles Jack, Scooby Wright

Hmmm

Yeah, that one might not be fair. I think, iirc, I thought he was going to be Aaron Donald if that helps. He is having a great year this year though.

If the expectations were Aaron Donald I get it. But yeah he has really boomed this year.

Here are my highest rated guys in my All Time rankings and the guys high on those lists who did not really turn out.

 

 

QB Jameis Winston / Byron Leftwitch
RB Darren McFadden / Trent Richardson 
FB Owen Marecic / Rob Konrad 
WR Kelvin Benjamin / Roy Williams / Peter Warrick
TE Kellen Winslow Jr / Aaron Hernandez
OT Bryant McKinnie / Robert Gallery
OG Chance Warmack / Alex Leatherwood
C Tyler Biadasz / Barrett Jones

 

DE Ezekiel Ansah / Courtney Brown
DT Gerard Warren / Marcus Stoud
OLB Anthony Barr / Jarvis Jones / AJ Hawk
ILB Andy Katzenmoyer / Alec Ogletree
CB Jamar Fletcher / Prince Amukamara
SS Tyrone Carter/ Ha Ha Clinton-Dix
FS Reggie Nelson / Deon Grant

 

 

PS no clue how people have Joey Bosa and Chase Young on their lists, Joey only gets hurt all the time, if not he would be a total super star in the NFL and really still is.  As for Chase, he is still pretty young and also has injury issues to deal with.  Also no clue how Clowney is included, sure he is not a 10 time All pro but is still pretty damn solid and has had injury issues as well, playing great currently and is a huge part of the Ravens.  Without him and Van Noy they would be screwed because Ojabo is barely even on the field or healthy and Oweh is just ok on the edge.
