2022 Draft Busts

[BossChief]

Who do you think is going to be a bust? Guys constantly projected to be first rounders but you think won’t make it as a difference maker in the NFL.

I’ll go first and I have 2.

Kyle Hamilton
Drake London

I think both guys face huge speed struggles in the NFL that end up being a fatal flaw.

Best case scenario for him is Victor Cruz.

Which is good enough, but he went awfully early for ‘big slot’ to be his ceiling. Especially when he and Pitts are going to occupy the same space frequently.

Drake London could have a hard bc his situation is tough. But in the long run he’s probably ok. Jahan Dotson is my pick for a bust. He’s going into a rough situation with wentz and he probably won’t get many targets. Plus he’s small and his short area quickness is meh. He’s got good hands but he’s likely covered up with nfl corners and is wentz gonna be able to make those tight window throws? I don’t think so. Dotson is a bust.

I’d like to retract my call for Hamilton to bust. Falling to Baltimore is huge for him.

Karlaftis and McDuffie

Both over drafted.

Karlaftis ceiling is Eric Hicks and McDuffie is ‘mighty mouse’ Mark McMillian

If you, DTVietnam, TEX, and Comochiefs hate the picks, it's an excellent bet they'll be All-Pros.

Yup.

At a point it's wise to consider your allies when taking a position.

If THAT'S the group you find yourself in, you really want to reconsider your stance.
