11 pro bowls between these guys, with only one bust. I'd say the conversion rate on elite-level college wide receivers has been pretty good. After the first three picks though, those 30 million signing bonuses, then busts mix in pretty evenly with successful players.
Why don't people tout Andre Johnson more? He doesn't get in trouble and he doesn't have a huge mouth, so the media doesn't pay attention to him. They guy is a freak and as good as any offensive player in the NFL, IMO.
