My #1 vote is Kelly Washington.

I got a soft spot for Peerless Price but he hasn't done anything in the NFL like I hoped.

You are wrong Peerless Price is not only in my avatar but he had a great time in Buffalo. Buffalo had to make a tough decision between him and Eric Moulds. They kept Eric Moulds and shipped P. Price out. He went to Atlanta, where ballhog Michael Vick never threw it to him.

Exactly . . . I like Peerless, but it's hard to complete passes to a receiver when he's inactive.

What happened to Peerless in Dallas this year?


I think they let him go. He just didn't fit into their system. Remember just because a player doesn't fit into someone's system doesn't mean that he can't play

Jerome Bettis was in St. Louis and didn't fit
Marshall Faulk was in Indy and didn't fit

Neither one of them has been released by two teams within a year.

...and Marshall Faulk fit just fine in Indy, he was just deemed too expensive and wasn't resigned.

Back to the topic . . .

Remember how Eric Locke ran circles around everybody at the Orange and White game and we even had packages for him to line up at QB, but he completely flopped and ended up getting kicked off the team.

Has Daniel Brooks already been mentioned? What a bust even when not suspended.

No, but you may have the winner.

I would also like to nominate every cornerback that we lined up against Florida in the mid 90s.

It looks even worse now that Big Al has made the Pro Bowl and that is what Brooks was supposed to be the second coming of.

I saw Leonard Scott return a KR against UGA, but that's about it. Keep in mind that he was supposed to be the next Willie Gault.......same background (track star).........same number (#26). We were all very disappointed.

Lavoiser Fisher was a linebacker out of Nashville about 6-3 235 who ran a 4-5 forty and should have been an All-American but never caught fire.

There was also a big offensive lineman out of Oak Ridge (#77) about 6-7 and 300# that was a huge bust . I forget his name.

Come on . . . Did anybody REALLY overrate Benji Shuler?

Can't really remember if anybody overrated him. In my opinion, he didn't deserve a scholarship so that makes him overrated to me. :biggrin2:

Leonard Scott is doing well for himself nowadays, but he always plays second fiddle to Justin Gatlin. If Gatlin is not in the race, Scott usually wins. I don't think he has topped Gatlin yet.

Well run Leonard run, as long as your not attempting to catch a pass. Leonard could've started in a movie like Necessary Roughness as "Stonehands", he would've been successful in that role. :scare:

Munoz never turned into that dominant OL that he was built up to be...D. Pollack made him look bad.
He'd get my vote.

I definintely have to go with Munoz. He was supposed to be the second coming of his father and every year he was built up as all-sec, even all-american. But he was just never that good in my opinion and obviously not in the minds of nfl scouts either. I can remember him getting it handed to him by pollack and then watching pollack be mostly shut down the following year with toeinna(sp.) on him most of the time.
