The last o line pick that might be called a bust was Robert Gallery, but he at least earned a starting spot at guard for the raiders, till he was injured. O line prospects rarely are total busts (benched, out of the league, etc.), but some of course aren't as good as their billing. It's one of the safest top 10 picks IMO, if not the safest.

Fair enough and good points. Though I'm sure the Raiders didn't expect to spend such a high pick on a guard.

Still, I'm not sure why so many people want to keep ripping on Bradford and Clausen (Ryan Leaf 2.0 really? based on what exactly) just because they want an OT. Or why so few people acknowledge that are issues with linemen as well.

Oh well, it is what it is...SPILLER!!!!

Based on the maturity issues that I keep hearing about, primarily.
