I'm a Redskins fan, so it has to be this guy...
Heath Shuler...the $19 million mistake...biggest bust in 'Skins history.
Don't forget about Brandon Lloyd![]()

For the Cardinals, it's gotta be Wendell Bryant. 12th overall, 2002. Was out of football within three seasons, despite playing DT, a position where there's a great need for depth. He was as lazy as he was unproductive.
Cardinals: They have had a ton of bad teams, but no one really stuck out to me as the worst player ever to start for them. The last one I remember who just pissed me off beyond belief was Josh McCown. On top of the fact he really sucked, he had a look on his face like he was always staring into the sun that made it seem like he had down syndrome, but it just made you wanna punch him.
Patriots: This is tough, but I can't think of anyone in recent memory who hurt the team on a game by game basis as much as Jonathan Wilhite. I was pissed when McCourty was taken over Kindle, but then Mono reminded me that Jonathan Wilhite was one of their top 3 corners last year and then the pick made tons of sense.
He was a 3rd-rounder, though. Hard to be too critical of a 3rd-rounder. Wendell Bryant is in the top-20 of all-time draft busts. He's gotta be it. Either way, they were both from the 2002 draft, which is among the handful mentioned as the worst drafts for any team ever. Cardinals didn't draft a single impact player, and within five years, six of the eight players were out of the League.
Actually, the only reason I didn't mention him is because I couldn't remember his name and was too lazy to look it up. Good call.![]()
I agree. Even if he did at one time or another start, he was a third rounder. Those guys are normally hit or miss more often than first round guys. Since Thunderdan isn't here I will throw Brady Quinn's name into the mix of first round bust. I am so glad the Browns picked before us that year because we sure as were set to pick him. Its probably a good thing I am not a GM because I probably would had traded up to get that bum. Lol
Cecil the Deisel Collins (on and off the field) and Ray Lucas can also be added.
But I would put Sammy Smith and Ted Gin above them because they were drafted so high.
