Recent BUSTS

It's hard to know when this first round bust is on IR or not, so weak has been his production. And remember that this is the loser that Trey Hendrickson had to ride the bench behind for three full seasons in New Orleans, another great example of how terrible the NFL's "scouting" is and how pathetic and grossly unfair racial apprenticeships are thanks to the league's religious-like devotion to the artificial construct known as the Caste System. Even Weenieworld takes a funny jab at Davenport.

Lions placed EDGE Marcus Davenport (chest) on injured reserve. Davenport reportedly couldn’t do much with his arm on Friday, up to and including working a lever on a recliner, so this is not a shock placement. The 29-year-old has been with the Lions in each of the last two seasons and the Vikings in 2023, and he has played just eight total games over that timespan. We often feel obligated to do the “he’ll miss at least the next four games” bit of the blurb, but that’s sort of just implied with Davenport.

Crazy Hendrickson served his racial apprenticeship behind this bum! Long arms though!

One of our favorite all-time busts Kadarius Toney is retiring and moving on to a rap career. New name, "Yung Joka"

Lmao. He’s got some crazy eyes. Pretty sure I heard a “kill Whitey” line through that autotuned mush mouth.

Yung Joka?!? Such an uncreative, lame rap name. Was “Lil Joka” already taken? His NFL career was definitely a joka.

Retarded

Second round draft pick two years ago:

Dolphins waived CB Cam Smith. The 2023 second-rounder was on the non-football injury list. He managed just 155 snaps over two years with the Dolphins and will go down as a big whiff by Chris Grier with the 51st overall pick. Smith will look to catch on elsewhere once healthy.

Had no idea who this player was. Apparently he started his rookie season, after being an early 4th round pick. But once Mike Vrabel showed up, he was immediately benched, then eventually cut. Drake Maye is the only sophomore member of the 2024 Draft class to see the field this season for the Patriots. A sumo from Ben Franklin's Penn State (3rd round) is barely hanging on to a roster spot -- inactive all season. So they drafted O-Lineman 3rd and 4th round in 2024 and neither is good enough to play a single snap under Vrabel


Fascinating comments in the link above. Fans are okay (not happy!) with the 2024 draft, because it brought them Drake Maye. Also, they seem particularly upset with Eli Wolf, who is the de-facto GM of the Patriots. They think he's an awful talent evaluator and are grateful Vrabel took a more active role in the last draft. Wolf is the son of ex-Packers GM Ron Wolf, who always had a very strong penchant for pretty much only drafting and signing black players at "black positions" during his 1990's tenure. Eli Wolf, by the way, has always been touted as been as a "brilliant" talent evaluator by media "types". Fellow lonsmen, like Adam Schefter and Adam Schein, have been especially lavish in their praise.

Find it fascinating Eli Wolf selected Joe Milton in the same draft as Drake Maye? Wolf Sr. had a very unique penchant for drafting a QB almost every year in 1990's, despite having superstar Brett Favre on the roster? He did this, figuring the Walrus (Holmgren) was such a QB guru, that he would develop them as backups, then trade them (to start) for future higher draft picks. List of successful draft and trade ups included Mark Brunnell, Tim Hasselbach and Aaron Brooks.

This does not happen much anymore, as teams do not develop QB's. They simply select them in round one, hand them the job and hope for the best. If that QB "busts", they either take a chance on an ex-1st round "bust" to start or move onto the next over-hyped first rounder, approved by ESPN and others members of the Draft Industrial Complex.

So much for this year's "generational two-way talent." Hunter finishes his rookie season with 28 catches for 298 yards, a less than sparkling 10.6 yards per reception by an alleged superstar talent, along with 15 total tackles with no "splash plays."

Ian Rapoport reports Travis Hunter (knee/IR) underwent season-ending surgery to repair a torn LCL. Hunter is going to be ready for full football activities in six months, so he should be fully ready for training camp. What to make of this rookie year? It was a year of waiting for something to launch. There were no touchdowns until (what would become) his final game of the season, where the Jaguars forced balls to him with aplomb in garbage time against the Rams. The target rate was there, and then it wasn’t, and then it was again. The two major elephants in the room for him this offseason will be what happens (or doesn’t) with Brian Thomas Jr., and whether or not he’ll continue to be a two-way player following the injury. We expect the status quo to rule this situation — mostly because of what the Jags invested in Hunter and Thomas — and for Hunter to roll into the 2026 season as WR3 in fantasy drafts.

Kind of disappointed in this one. No fan of Coach Prime and “legendary” low IQ Sheduer. But, Hunter seems like a super talented, likeable guy. I felt sorry for him falling in love with an OnlyFans model and marrying her. I would’ve done the same if I was an ugly 22 year old with a lot of money. It will end badly. Truthfully, the trade to move up and get Hunter was a desperate move to save Trevor’s career. Unfortunately, it’s not working. Trevor has underperformed, but Jacksonville is a hopeless organization, like Tennessee, Carolina, the Jets, Arizona, Cleveland, and New Orleans. Trevor needs a change of scenery.

Travis Hunter insisting on playing both ways is a unique way to sabotage a career. Trying to play two positions before mastering one is stupid, and the cucks at the Jaguars are too weak to force him to play one position. Choosing Deion Sanders as his surrogate father is another comically dumb decision. If he'd just played for a real coach in college he'd be in a much better position now.
