Re: Most Likely First Round Bust

Stafford and Freeman will not be worthy of the slot they were taken. Ergo, they will be "busts".

I don't like the Beanie Wells pick much.

Here is my reservation about how good a player Orakpo can become. I am "old school" about defensive ends; I think they have to be able to play the run very well IN ADDITION TO rushing the passer upfield on every play and coming around the tackle for sacks. When I saw Orapko, he did NOT play the run very well.

If he works and learns to do that, he can become excellent; if not he will become a third down pass-rush specialist. And if that is all he becomes, then for the #13 pick in the draft he will be disappointing. Time will tell...
