Remember These FORGOTTEN NFL Draft Busts? 2

[@FootballLoreOfficial]

Chad Pennington Facts: Only ever started a full season TWICE (constantly injured), Averaged 1600 passing yards a season, and his BEST year was 36 hundred yards and 19 touchdowns. For a first round pick, that's not very good.

[@LASVEGASRAIDERS21]

"Not very good" and "BUST" are two different things. Please stop trying to justify why you put Chad Pennington on this list, you were wrong.

[@EazY2484]

Drafted as high as he was and he played like a career back.. IF he wasn't hurt.. you must be a jets fan? Lol

[@nightmar3116]

@FootballLoreOfficial He played in the career of 89 games. And in those games, he had 17,823 passing yards. That's equates to 200.26 ypg, but even that is Diluted due to the number of games he left early with an injury. He's not great, but certainly not a bust. Also, with a positive touchdown to interception ratio. He also l led two teams to the playoffs. If it wasn't for brady being in that same draft class he would have been the best quarterback in the class. Bro, you just got this wrong.Just sit in a minute and take the L and quit doubling down

You're able to reference his 2008 season where he had 3600 yards, but left out that he finished tied for second for league MVP?

There is a middle ground where a guy might not have been worthy of as high of a pick as was used on him, but that doesn’t make him a bust. You can have an ok-ish solid career without being a bust. 2. Pennington doesn’t even fall into the “bust because of injuries” category. That’s for guys like Ki-Jana Carter that got hurt off the bat. People today are consumed by “something has to be in one bucket or the other, no in between” and that’s simply not reality. There’s ranges to everything, including evaluating draft picks.

The fact you keep throwing up the “1600 yards per season” stat shows either your lack of knowledge of statistics or your inability to admit that you maybe made the wrong call on Pennington. Yes, when you divide 17,823 yards by 11 years, you get 1618 yards per season. Now, divide those 17,823 yards by 89 career games. 200 yards per game. Times 16 is…3204 yards per 16 games. That’s a respectable amount. Not HOF level, but a decent amount. Now let’s look at the 2 seasons he started 16 games: 3653 and 3352 yards…would you look at that? Right near his career average.

[@MurduckMysteries]

Many comments here disagreeing about Chad Pennington. I shall join them. Very much so ludicrous to call him a bust. You take his career average in passing yards while completely ignoring 2006 and 2008 where he was statistically a top 10 QB. Even in 2002 he finished top 15 in passing. He was also VERY accurate, leading the NFL in completion percentage TWICE and top 8 five times. The guy was not a bust, not even close. Pennington has the 20th best passer rating of all time, with only Andrew Luck and Joe Flacco joining him as non-HOF passers. It's like you chose to pick on him when you have Joey Harrington, Patrick Ramsay, Kyle Boller, Tim Rattay, Quincy Carter, JP Losman, and a slew of other true busts to use.

This dude is a clown 😂. Doesn't think why teams are drafting needs at the time or how bad some of these drafts were. How dare a team draft the best availble DE they needed and not a RB. What a joke 😂

[@zlinedavid]

Some truth to that. Tampa didn’t look at AP or Lynch because they had Cadillac Williams, who was coming off of being the Offensive ROY 2 seasons prior and hadn’t gone through his big run of injuries yet. They didn’t take Revis because they had Ronde Barber coming off an All Pro season at one corner and a combination of Philip Buchanon (a solid 10+ year pro) and Brian Kelly (former league leader in picks) at the other corner. They didn’t look at Willis because they had Derrick Brooks, Jeremiah Trotter, Cato June and Barrett Ruud at LB. They didn’t draft Greg Olson because they had a reliable veteran in Anthony Becht at tight end, and Olson was considered a bust for several years anyway, even after he was dealt to Carolina. The point of this isn’t to compare Anthony Becht to Greg Olson or Barrett Ruud to Patrick Willis. The point is at the time they drafted Gaines Adams, they didn’t see those positions as positions of need. They did have a need at DE due to the more-or-less career ending injury to Simeon Rice. And they were kind of screwed in any direction taking a DE, given that the best DE in that draft was LaMar Woodley, and he wasn’t taken until mid-2nd round. Was Adams a bad pick? In hindsight, yes. But it’s a cheap move to say “Yeah, but they could have picked XYZ”.

[@DonJohnJay]

@zlinedavid not only that, it's cheap to call some of these guys bust due to injuries. Bust in my eyes is Jamarcus, Leaf, & Bosworth. They were just awful, not hindered by injuries.

[@zlinedavid]

@@DonJohnJay Agree. I’ve always said there needs to be a “Bust*” category if you’re classifying draft picks. Russell, Leaf, Akili Smith…straight busts. Ki-Jana Carter, Andy Katzenmoyer, etc….we’ll never know what they could have done. If you want to define “bust” as “not getting value for the pick” fine. But at least the second group has a clear reason as to why, aside from the fact that “they weren’t good enough”.

[@Gungho73]

Judging by the comments I think the critical difference of opinion between FootballLore and his audience seems to be about what can be considered controllable outcomes and not. The defenders of Chad Pennington know from an intellectual, work ethic arm talent standpoint Chad had all the makings of being a franchise QB or at the very least a QB you could rest your hat on and know he was capable of leading you to a win. It's also important to remember for one, for a younger generation, that some rule changes have definitely helped change the perfection of QB's even from the early aughts. A QB like Matt Hasselbeck has 28 TD's and 12 INT's in a west coast style offense and is considered one of the best QB's of his year. Having 12 INT's now gets you close to the league leaders, and having under 30 even in a west coast style offense makes you feel like he's underperforming (he's not). 60% completion was the barometer, not the expectation. 4,000 yard passers belonged to at best, the top 5 QB's for many years and not even that (2-3 and those were considered pass heavy offenses). Midway into the aughts and heading to the 2010's, the expectation was 5 minimum and usually about 8 a year. Point being, that's not a fair barometer to make when most of his contemporaries weren't matching those numbers. The argument people and FL seem to be having, almost a joke of one at this point, is whether a player is considered a draft bust if they are unable to remain healthy. It is very apparent that FootballLore, based on some of these entries, believes that a player should be held accountable for their body breaking down and limiting their capacity and potential overhead as a player on the field. Many of those arguing in defense of Pennington are pointing out when healthy, he was a good QB in his era and that his body failing him doesn't mean the draft decisions (or later free agent decisions depending on trajectories) made were wrong. Which is true and their logic is correct. A healthy Pennington for say, 8-12 years that suited up for say 13 or more games each year would've by what we saw, justified his draft position by at least being a solid top 16 if not 10 QB who could've taken another step for his franchise(s). FootballLores argument (apologies for speaking for you) is that in terms of the promise that is being a franchise QB, availability is just as important as anything else and him not being available for most of his seasons or for large durations means you cannot say looking back, those teams would've signed up for him once again. Which in his mind, makes him a bust. His logic is ALSO correct. You're all arguing about something that is effectively a matter of opinion on how "fair" hindsight should be. The people in the Pennington camp are essentially saying, busts should be players that actively take no advantage of their opportunities, are immature (drug or alcohol abuse) or lack work ethic/motivation, or flat out were misdiagnosed as players who could translate to the NFL (players who were drafted because they were track stars in college and not because they could understand what the term zone coverage even meant at the high school level). A player like a Johnny Manziel for example, effectively drank himself out of the league and even in the best of circumstances with focus was likely a player that could NOT play in the NFL. That you look at the person not the numbers. The people, mainly FootballLore but there are those in his camp as well that shouldn't be ignored out of respect, say what ultimately matters is what you put on the field especially for your draft organization (but not necessarily just for those in some cases). Even if Pennington averaged 250-300 yards every game he played (with those games he started being the exact same) and 2 TD's, FL would probably not have changed his mind because so much of his career is "what if" and not "but reality though" because of how many games he missed. The best ability is availability. Ultimately he failed to fufill that promise as an NFL QB because of it and had he not been a first round QB, he might've viewed the situation differently and not included him on the list at all. I'm tired of writing yall please calm down? Please?

[@Kylora2112]

Yeah, a bust requires a combination of massive hype and a complete lack of performance. Akili Smith was a bust because he was awful on the field. Ki-jana Carter isn't because he blew his knee out on his first carry in the the preseason so he never really got the chance to play.
