You expect more than average in the 1st round. You can get average in the 6th round....busts.Reagor definitely sucked. Both Dillard and Barnett were serviceable. Given that over 50% of First Round picks in the NFL fail, both Dillard and Barnett are average … nothing more, nothing less.
You are confusing Hope with Expectation (Reality) Here is what the actual Expectation chart looks like. Dillard was pick 22. Reagor was pick 21 Barnett was pick 14. None of them achieved that status, You don't get average in the 6th round. You get a wing and a prayer.You expect more than average in the 1st round. You can get average in the 6th round....busts.

Eeeeeee....Who was our 2017 1st rounder again?????
You clearly live in a binary world ... either plus or minus. The world we live in is neither black nor white, but rather many shades of gray. Reagor is a bust, neither of the other two were. They delivered tangible value at meaningful times during their careers. Barnett recovered a fumble in the Super Bowl win.And according to this chart they are busts. Like what are you doing? They are busts. He sucks in the first round
He could beat up Thor and Hulk and I’d still say he’s a bust. It’s ok to say he’s a bust. Wentz is a bust too but he did help win a SB that year.

You and I have very different definitions of bust. We will have to agree to disagree.He could beat up Thor and Hulk and I’d still say he’s a bust. It’s ok to say he’s a bust. Wentz is a bust too but he did help win a SB that year. It happens.
A bust is a bust. There's only one way to describe one.You and I have very different definitions of bust. We will have to agree to disagree.
Leonard was miles above Barnett when they were both at their best a few years ago. Not sure where either of them would stand todayI thought Barnett was one of the major pieces to their line. He's definitely better than Leonard isn't he?
It is clear that you never met an opinion of yours that you didn’t like.A bust is a bust. There's only one way to describe one.
That doesn’t even make sense lol…..It is clear that you never met an opinion of yours that you didn’t like.
Look at every NFL draft, 50% of first round picks never see a second contract.You expect more than average in the 1st round. You can get average in the 6th round....busts.
And they are called what? BUSTS.Look at every NFL draft, 50% of first round picks never see a second contract.
I think the team that really blew it was Detroit but they trade back from taking Carter to draft a RB when they had Swift. Dumb. Hutchinson and Carter would be big for them.Bears needed Carter more than Philly. Their fans were screaming to draft him. Falcons and Raiders too. Stupid Falcons HC isn't even using Bijan properly. All three of those teams sucked and might gladly take Carter if a redraft was allowed. It's never a no brainer with character issues. Just stop already.
