10 Biggest BUSTS Of The 2010's

[@BlitzHQ]

Yes, RGIII is a bust, but with an asterisk. The outcome is the same, but he falls into a slightly different category. Plenty of other players came back from the same injury and were successful; Adrian Peterson and Rob Gronkowski are good examples.

[@lemonman823]

a bust means the wrong draft pick if the Redskins could draft him again they probably would they would just rest him more he was great

[@paulozhan]

Gronk and AP played in way better run organizations than RGIII. RGIII could have thrived if he found a starting spot in a team like the Niners, Ravens, Steelers or Eagles. Not his fault.

[@IcyTorments]

yeah no RGIII isnt a bust, dont care about that asterisk you wanna put there. Bro was literally forced to completely change his game and never played the same because of it. also you chose some very interesting examples. AP was already a freak and did something extremely rare back then hell its still rare. hell kevin whites the same both had brutal injuries and to put them as busts is Bullshit. you know that, we know that, you need to do better man. theyre were 100% bigger busts in the 2010's than those 2. in 2013 both luke joeckel and dion jordan were taken back to back with joeckel going 2nd overall and jordan going 3rd. Jordan played 63 games in 6 seasons with not very good stats, joeckel played for years last playing in 2017 for seattle.

[@gabriellavasquez9120]

RgIII was not a bust he was killing it before injury a bust is matt leinart, Jamarcus Russell, Jake locker etc. Redskins picked correct player but didn’t use him correctly and rushed him back in to soon after the injury. RGIII would’ve had a great career if never injured. Adrian Peterson and Rob took time off to heal. Adrian did win mvp the next season but he had the off season to heal ! RGIII was thrown into a playoff game injured.

[@rstreet5537]

I'm a carolina fan Watching him in college I seen nothing special about him He couldn't even beat out Marquise Williams who didnt even make the league

[@dustint2482]

So the fact that the Bears reached for Mitch is what makes you think he's a bust. I agree they shouldn't have reached for him, but they didn't know that at the time and he was by all accounts, the best quarterback on the board. In hindsight, we obviously know that's not true.

[@dustint2482]

He was also drafted without having much college experience given to a head coach that had no coaching experience and made to play in his fourth game without having an actual starter in front of them. Mahomes on the other hand, got a coach that had 20 years head coaching experience and sat behind a true professional for an entire year.

They were 2-5 the rest of his last Chicago year, then went 6-11, 3-14 and 7-10. They’re 4-2 now under 1st overall pick Caleb Williams, but haven’t played anyone besides Houston w/ a winning record or that has good metrics.

What stings even more for the Bears when they traded for Trubisky was just how much better the 49ers did with their assets. While Solomon Thomas (the pick that actually belonged to the Bears) was a bust, it was another pick in that haul that is the real kick in the family jewels. The 3rd round pick in the 2018 Draft ended up being 70th overall, and the Niners selected Fred Warner, who is the man in the middle of the 49ers linebacker corps. Rubbing more salt in the rounds, the 3rd round pick from 2017 was traded by the Niners to the Saints, and the Saints ended up selecting Alvin Kamara with it. Even though the Bears would have definitely botched Mahomes or Watson (let's just say the Bears lack the coaching staff needed to develop QBs) if they had gone there, can you imagine if instead of trading those picks, we would be seeing Alvin Kamara or Fred Warner in Bears colors instead? While it would not immediately turn the Bears into Super Bowl contenders overnight, it certainly would have given them a fighting chance for bragging rights against their NFC North rivals.

No, Sam is killing it with the Vikings

Haha,Justin Gilbert... you know that a player is BAD when the team is willing to trade him to a division rival :D

[@Rockhound6165]

The fact that the Cardinals traded *up* to get Rosen pisses me off to this day. I wanted Lamar Jackson who the Cards could have gotten easily at 15. Then in 2019, if things still shook out the way they did, took Nick Bosa. I can't imagine the Cards with Bosa and Chandler Jones on the same defense.

The Darnold will remember this when he goes undefeated.

Ultimately Trubisky landing as a career backup in BUF is not a bad spot for him.

Baker wasn’t a bust. You can’t blame the guy all the different head coaches all the offensive coordinators that changed that changed under him at Cleveland. It was actually a travesty for him. Now that he the same head coach and offensive coordinator he’s really fantastic.

Hell, Baker was looking fantastic in Cleveland until they ran him into the ground. I think we can't count anyone's career with the Panthers as a knock against them either.
