    Re: NFL Bust Thread......

    I used to be the not-so-proud owner of this Kijana jersey. I probably should have burned it, but instead I sold it. It really epitomizes the hopelessness of the 1990s Bengals.

    I'm sorry Doc Loomis I didn't mean to take this thread off topic. I will contribute with a jersey myself. I will take some pics tonight.

    Loomis, look at all the trouble you've started.

    Folks - Post your game used jerseys of football players you though were busts. Jerseys should be from your own collection.

    That is a pretty lame thing to claim on this guy.

    I am not sure why he would qualify.

    - 3rd round pick
    - Has a winning record as a starter (inkling winning record in Miami, Denver and Tampa)
    - 11 year career with helping Tampa win division title in 2005
    - Pro Bowler in 2000
    - Nearly 20,000 career passing yards
    - his 119 career TD's rank higher than Mark Rypien, Jim McMahon, Doug Williams, and Jeff Hostetler

    King bust, how so?
    I would also like to know what justifies Griese as a "King Bust", and I'm even a Broncos' fan.

    Don't forget - Led NFL in QB rating in 2000 and led NFL in Completion Percentage in 2004.

    Guy isn't a Hall of Famer but you are current. He isn't a King Bust or even a Bust - 11 years in the NFL is something to be proud of. A 45-38 career record as a starting quarterback is also positive.

    Jay Fiedler- Bust
    Damon Huard- Bust
    Ray Lucas- Bust
    Brian Griese- King Bust
    AJ Feeley- King Bust-E-R
    Sage Rosenfels- Bust
    Gus Frerotte- Head Bust
    Joey Harrington- Bust
    Daunte Culpepper- Bust
    Cleo Lemon- Bust
    Trent Green- Bust 1 good year doesn't count
    John Beck- HUGE Bust
    Chad Pennington- Overrated Bust
    Chad Henne- Current Bust
    Tyler Thigpen- Bust
    Matt Moore- Backup Bust

    Lol thats a lot of Busts. Tannehill the savior lives on!
    Wow, umm...this list gives me a headache haha. I would say Rosenfels wasn't a bust and neither was Frerotte - Frerotte played 15 years in the NFL, you can't suck and do that. And are we really giving the "bust" label to late round and undrafted players? The criteria (I would think) would be a "higher" pick - likely 1st or 2nd with it focusing on the "lottery" part of the draft

    How about names like Joey Harrington, Blair Thomas, Dan McGwire, Rick Mirer, Curtis Enis, Andre Wadsworth, Reggie Williams (Jags), Charles Rogers, David Terrell, Vernon Gholston? All high picks who were horrible pros (though a couple of these were due to injury).

    And as far as most of the players on your list go, to be considered a bust you actually have to have been highly thought of at one point. I'm pretty sure the majority of us didn't think Cleo Lemon would be in Canton five years after he retired.

    He just fell victim to injuries and bad teams
    +1, Definitely not a bust, same goes for Chad Pennington. Just because they didn't play well for the Dolphins does not make them a bust.
