If he doesn't play you can say "eh, never liked him in the draft" glossing over that he never got a chance. If you did like him in the draft, "well, he never got a real shot did he, what a shame such a talent" Either way, *nods* (not that he's an injury bust, just a tangent) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A bunch of guys that just got hurt over and over and Skip Bayless called every single one a heartless coward who didn't want it enough, essentially. Lol it was like he did one generic bit for a bust then they used it for a bunch of guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Russell wasn't on it. So that's how you know it was old. Leaf, Tony then Boz were top 3 I remember. I skipped some because I had to get going and wanted to see the top 3 still Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 By today's standards, Boz wouldn't have been a bust because he wouldn't have been a first round pick. There would've been HUGE medical red flags, not to mention the PED tests, and he would've easily fallen out of the first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlexGreen#20 Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 In light of Kyle Long really losing his ****, is anybody that covers this sport going to talk about his serious drug problem in college? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have never heard of this... Had to Google it. I swear I paid attention to that draft decently well that year and never heard about the rehab.
