Most Likely First Round Bust

I can't believe you guys think Maclin is going to be a bust. No freakin way. You could argue he was the best wr in the draft. I tend to look at a college players production and Maclin was a VERY VERY productive on offense. He got open, caught a ton of passes and got in the end zone. Plus he's a stud in the return game. Plus he catches the ball with his hands. He'll do just fine in Philly. Bey is a different story. I can not believe he got drafted so high. I'm actually shocked. I follow MD. football and he's got a long long way to go.


kinda easy to be productive when you come out in a 5 wide set every play and all you run is drag routes and there is NO WAY anyone could reasonably argue that he was the best wr in the draft this year

Hold on I must have missed the part where Hayword -Bay went to the RAIDERS. How can he NOT be a bust?

He isn't the best wideout but he is going to the best team if you are a wideout. He will be getting single coverage all year and Philly refuses to run at times.

This was a good first round. Honestly as bad they claim this draft class is I only see a handful of bust.

1. Derrius Heyward-Bey - Didn't put up good numbers in college due to weak QB play and now goes to a team with even weaker QB play. Basically in my mind there are two types of recievers, guys that need a QB and guys that can succed with a RB under center (VERY RARE). Heyward-Bey is sure as hell not the latter.

2. Josh Freeman - Another guy with a big arm. Whoop dee doo. He'll just be average, nothing special.

3. Percy Harvin - Good chance he'll fail and to be honest I kind of want him to.

4. Hakeem Nicks/Kenny Britt - Really? Boldin and Edwards available for that pick and you come away with guys that might develop into #2's? In all fairness though to the Titans the Cardinals didn't return their phone calls.

Who else can they throw it to?

I didn't say that Maclin stinks!!! Its just 60% of the time Westbrook has the ball. DeSean Jackson is slowly getting his touches, then you have Curtis, Baskett, Avant, Brown and then the newly drafted TE, where does Maclin fit in? He'll be a "bust" due to limited play, not from lack of skill.

Percy Harvin is another player from this area. Loads of talent. Between injuries and his propensity to get high, I could see him being a bust. I hate to see him follow the path of other Tidewater area players such as Vick and Burress, but apparently he also lives in a different world and thinks he is above the rules.

He isn't the best wideout but he is going to the best team if you are a wideout. He will be getting single coverage all year and Philly refuses to run at times.


If Philly refuses to run why would he get single coverage???

I feel Sanchez is overrated, his arm isnt gonna scare anyone. BUT neither did Montana's, but I really doubt Sanchez is anywhere near as smart and accurate as Montana was.

But Ill go with Maclin and Wells, neither will hold up against NFL'ers.

I don't know, the games I saw he seemed to be running everything. I mean you don't catch 100 balls in Div 1 football and not have some seriosu talent. Now I know the Big 12 isn't the SEC but that's still serious production.
