Top 5 Draft Busts Since 1990
July 10th, 2008 Shawn McAllister Posted in Features, Opinions


5. Sylvester Morris: First round 2000 Drafted out of Jackson State had a successful rookie season going for 678 yards and 3 touchdowns. After his rookie season injured his knee and never played football professionally again. The Chiefs search for a true # 1 receiver would continue for several seasons.

4.Junior Siavii: Second round 2004 Taken to correct the Ryan Sims mistake Junior only compounded the problem. His second round status was questioned by the experts from the beginning. Over matched in his two seasons in Kansas City. When Herm came to town he cut him loose. Out of football for two seasons resurfaced on the Dallas Cowboy?s practice squad this year.

3 Percy Snow: First round 1990 If you watched Hard Knocks last season you might have noticed people traveling on bicycles across the campus of River Falls Wisconsin University. Percy is the reason for that. His second season was cut short when he injured himself in a moped accident missing his entire second season never regained his form and was eventually cut loose by the Chiefs.

2:Trezelle Jenkins: First round 1995 Nick named The House coming out of college played in only 9 games in 3 seasons for the Chiefs. Never showing any signs of hope. In 2000 was drafted by the San Francisco Demons of the XFL but failed to make the team. Now runs a Harolds Chicken Shack in Detroit.

1:Ryan Sims: First round 2002 Never made any kind of impact what so ever. Was supposed to be the anchor of the defensive line. Could be the Chiefs worst draft pick of all time. His lack of production set the Chiefs defense back years. Eventually traded to Tampa Bay for a seventh round pick

Probably Siavii since he was a second rounder, but Jackson would have to go near the top with Sims.

You guys are so fucking funny, labeling a guy a bust after 2 seasons!

And you guys are funny acting like Glenn Dorsey is the best D-lineman ever.

Didn't say he was best, he is good enough to build a dominate defense around though. You dont have to have superstar pass rushers out of the DE spot, when you have a Hali, Berry, etc on the list. Not to mention We will find another OLB to match up with Hali. He has no where near peaked and will continue to get better. They need to continue to lock up O lineman which is what there job is. If we can find a good NT who can play on other side of the line of scrimmage, these DEs will become beasts. Dorsey showed last year he can get close to the QB.

Okay I'll give you he has improved and could still get better, but given the predraft hype on him he hasnt lived up to it as of yet, that is all I'm saying. And I still think he'd be better in the 4-3.

I understand what you are saying as well. Not many do live up to thier Pre Draft Hype. I'm just glad he produced 69 combined tackles and 2 sacks last year and is showing signs that hes still getting better. At least hes a productive ascending player who fits into the scheme and is not a Ryan Sims type, therefore in my opinion he was well worth the pick.

He was picked too high, but he still young enough to have a bounce back season...Some players take a little longer to adjust to the speed/power of the NFL..3rd year seasons are labeled "breakouts", so let's just be a little more patient, huh?
