Yeah Andre Ware, forgot about that guy.
How about Gino Torretta? What a total clown and he won a Heismann too. The Vikes had him back in the day.

Yeah Boz was a bust, but he was better than Mandarich. That clown was probably the most overhyped 'athlete' of the 20th century.
Mandarich was definitely overhyped, but he did play 6 years in the NFL. 3 years with the Packers then 3 with the Colts, ended up starting 63 games in his career. Not exactly the dominant lineman he was touted to be, but 6 years in the league aint too shabby.

My main problem with Mandarich is that he spent six years denying he was ever on 'roids. He was a shriveled up wimp at the end.

And it wasn't like other people were cautioned on the guy. #2 over all - SI called him the greatest talent/prospect of all time etc.
Understand why GB took him. I suspect Poe is going to be like that this year. MONSTER combine/work out guy but couldn't dominate consistently in Conference USA. Hardly a power conference.

I'd line this up with Cleveland Brown picks just for my bud 270 but since I like him, I'll only include one Browns pick.
Tim Couch - Cleveland QB(won't mention Brady Quinn) Matt Leinart - Arizona QB Carlos Rogers - Lions Receiver Alex Smith - QB 49ers(last year was an anomaly. He still sucks) Joey Harrington - QB Lions. The guy would throw a 5 yrd out on 3rd and 10 every time.

Got to disagree with you on that one. Vick certainly has some issues, (hopefully most of them are behind him for the dogs sake) but he delivers on the field. Vick has moments of greatness, followed by long bouts of poor decisions both on and off the field. Teams will keep him because he sells tickets. Mark my words, no team he ever plays with will ever be a serious contender.
Most people don't really want the truth.
They just want constant reassurance that what they believe is the truth.

Skins are finally getting a quality QB so I could care less how the rest of this thing goes as we have nada beyond pick 2 and RG3.
It's now or never for the Skins.

1983 Kansas City Chefs.
Shoppin for a QB.
Elway was taken, but coulda had Jim Kelly.
Coulda had Dan Marino.
Picked Todd Blackledge.
Bonus point: After his 3-start NFL career, TB sucked as an announcer too!

The "Boz" without a doubt. All hype no play...... The Boz led the team in tackles his first two years, his shoulders gave away from the roids.
Jed York does not own the 49ers; Russell Wilson does.

I'm actually distantly related to Boz. Same haircut? Yeah Boz was a bust, but he was better than Mandarich. That clown was probably the most overhyped 'athlete' of the 20th century. I disagree about the Boz. It was his shoulders that let him down not his performance on the field. It is tough to feel sorry for him though because of the obnoxious persona he assumed. Expat
