Emtman: Never won a Heisman (??????) Russell: #1 Overall Pick in 2007 Draft Chargers: Have never won a Super Bowl anywhere

Steve Emtman didn’t win the Heisman; he finished fourth in 1991. Desmond Howard won the trophy that year, and a defensive player didn’t win it until 1997 with Charles Woodson.

Ryan Leaf was a an atrocious bust, but I urge you to listen to recent interviews with him. He owns his mistakes, and he's a humble, funny and good dude

It’s one thing when a player is a bust because of his own attitude, poor decisions, etc. But, it’s very tragic when a promising talented and committed young player becomes a bust due to injury. That’s the nature of the beast with sports.

Matt Leinart was already a celebrity quarterback in college. By the time he got into the nfl, he was more celebrity than quarterback and it showed.

JaMarcus Russell was bad, but Ryan Leaf was god awful.

Unfortunately Russel was No 1 overall and we getting very close to adding Zack Wilson to the list. Also Honorable mention to Celin Farrell

Not only was Tony Mandarich one of the biggest busts of all time, but 4 out of the top 5 picks in that draft class are in the Hall of Fame. 1 Troy Aikman 2 Tony Mandarich 3 Barry Sanders 4 Derrick Thomas 5 Deion Sanders

JaMarcus Russell was told to watch tapes on plays by the coaches in Oakland, and when he came back the next day JaMarcus said “Coach I love all the plays!” But little did JaMarcus know the tapes were blank.

Basically, if Mel Kiper says they'll be amazing, be afraid.

Im sure Josh Rosen really regrets calling the 9 players selected before him mistakes.

Leaf was waaaaaay worse than Russell. Leaf completed 48% of his passes with 14 tds and 35 picks in his 25 career games. Russell completed 52% and had 18 tds and 23 int in 31 games.

Ummmmm, where in the living hell is Trubisky.

Teams pick players that don’t fit in their systems or gameplay regularly They pick players because of their performances at college. Scouts never look at the bigger picture

Dishonorable mentions: 1. Tim Couch 2. Rick Mirer 3. Aundray Bruce 4. Aaron Curry 5. Justin Blackmon 6. Trent Richardson

Ryan Leaf hands down the worst draft pick ever

"BRIAN BOSWORTH?! I always said you were God!" - Thad Castle

Steve Emtman was a monster of a DL his first season at Indy. That one clip they showed of him was from a game late in his rookie season against Miami. Indy had just scored a go-ahead TD, and then Dan Marino looked to be primed for one of his patented last-minute comebacks. He drove all the way to the Indianapolis 10, and on the ensuing play Marino threw a ball in Emtman's direction that Steve speared in mid-air and ran back 90 yards for a game-sealing defensive TD. Again, this was a defensive lineman! Injuries pretty much wrecked the remainder of his career, which was sad because he really looked great that first season.

I didn't know that a Lions scout wanted no part of Andre Ware. That scout's fears were realized. Even though Ware ran a similar offense with the Houston Cougars, NFL defenses are an entirely different beast.

I’d give a dishonorable mention to Henry Ruggs III, who is currently serving a sentence of up to 10 years in prison for killing a woman while driving under the influence.

As Raiders fan I painfully knew who would top the list...

Thanks for making me relive our Johnny Manziel blunder :(

20:13 Raiders selected JaMarcus at #1 not number 3 lol

The next three draft picks after Tony Mandarich: Barry Sanders, Derrick Thomas, Deion Sanders

Akili Smith, but no Joey Harrington??

To be fair to the Seahawks, Bosworth was part of a supplemental draft (Not the main draft). He was considered a major talent so they took a chance. Chuck Knox (Their coach) tried to develop him but injuries (and attitude) didn't help him. It's too bad...

Respectfully you can’t have guys that got injured classified as a bust

Penix Jr to the Falcons will be on another version of this video in 5 years

Todd Marinovich. That draft bust had the word “Basket Case“ written all over his forehead.

Tony Mandarich had three Hall of Famers drafted directly behind him.

i knew manizel was going be a bust just from watching him in college

You might want to add Michael Penix on this list now. Seriously, wtf were the Falcons thinking.

Whatever the list, i knew it would end with Jamarcus Russel!

I haven’t watched this yet but as a Raiders fan, if JaMarcus Russell is not on this list, then the list is invalid lol dishonorable mention to Henry Ruggs III🤦‍♂️ Edit: aged well 😂 he was the first that came to mind when I read the title so it’s only fitting he was number one

At 4.12 : "Is demoted the word I'm looking for? " " That's the word, yeah " 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

They could make a video on this subject just using the Cleveland Browns. Justin Gilbert, Trent Richardson, Tim Couch, Brady Quinn, Johnny Manziel, etc.

You know it’s bad when watchmojo is roasting you 😭

So we just gonna act like Justin Blackmon, Corey Coleman, Trent Richardson, Luke Joeckel, Jonathan Cooper, Aaron Curry, Gaines Adams don’t exist? I hate that is always “Bosworth”, who was on all-rookie team, and “Mandarich” who started more games than Joeckel, because those are the more known names. Do more research!

Not a lot of running backs on this list. I was hoping to see appearances by Blair Thomas, Ki-Jana Carter, Curtis Ennis, Trent Richardson and Tony Smith on this list.

See you guys did your homework, I thought for sure the list would be just QBs, WRs, RBs

Love your video, WatchMojo, and keep up the great work you are awesome

I would say how the Bears got him was more ridiculous. Plus Trubisky did have his moments in Chicago. Heck, I was there when he threw six touchdowns in one game back in 2018.

Jamarcus saying he must have been the best draft pick ever to be the worst draft pick ever gives you some insight to his thought process...or lack thereof.

I Always thought Charles Woodson was the only defensive player to win the Heisman. Apparently Etman was a beast his junior year thanks WM

I guess I have a different perspective on this list now. While players who torpedoed their careers with bad financial decisions, drugs and arrests is one thing, franchises that are bad ownership and have a track record still to this day of not being any good at developing talent should never be overlooked. A lot of these names would have worked out if they had gone to different teams with better leadership.

Tony Mandarich was a way biggest bust than Johnny Football, most ppl knew Johnny wasn’t goons be that good in the league but Mandarich literally got drafted ahead of 3 of the all time greatest Deion Sanders, Barry Sanders and Derrick Thomas because of the hype

Vernon Gholston played three seasons, not one. Steve Emtman placed fourth in Heisman voting. Isaiah Wilson played just four snaps in one game. Charles Rogers was injured in Week 1 of the 2004 season. JaMarcus Russell was drafted #1 overall.

never understood why the browns chose manziel over connor shaw

I'm glad they updated they list.

Dimitrius Underwood Vikings, 1999. Drafted in first round, never played a down.

The story of Charles Rogers never fails to make me sad as a diehard MSU and Detroit Lions fan.

Nice to see Klingler and Akili on this list lol

I had a bad feeling about Linehart before he came out. He would have been the #1 or #2 overall selection if he had came out a season earlier. He decided to return to college and use his last year of eligibility. He had already graduated academically. The only class he took that year was ballroom dancing. He wanted to be big man on campus one more year. I knew then he had maturity issues and glad my team passed on him in the draft.

How is Leaf NOT at the #1 spot?!

When the Rams drafted Phillips, I was excited so excited I got my parents to take me to one of their preseason practices and tried to get his autograph. All I got was an autograph from some scrub, Isaac Bruce.

Man, we got robbed of what could’ve been an amazing QB in Russell.

When mel kipper said manzel and Russell would be great those teams should've known right away not to draft them

Never let your drafted QB go to Vegas

I would disagree with number 1. Ryan Leaf should be number 1, despite JaMarcus Russell having been first overall. The Chargers traded up to take Leaf, who some thought was better than Peyton Manning who went number 1. The 1998 draft also featured Charles Woodson and Randy Moss. The second quarterback taken in 2007 was Brady Quinn, who was also a bust. Because of that, the Leaf pick is worse. Also, Rick Mirer should be on this list as well as Todd Marinovich, Ki-Jana Carter, Akili Smith, and I would include Fabian Washington (2005) because the Raiders traded into the 1st round to the Jets in a trade that included players Al Davis got in the trade of Jon Gruden to Tampa Bay - instead of taking Aaron Rodgers after the Raiders had traded the 7th overall pick for Randy Moss, Davis took a CB who ran a 4.2. That, in the long run, is why the Raiders had to take JaMarcus Russell 1st overall and traded Moss for a 4th round pick. They could have taken Calvin Johnson or Joe Thomas at 1st overall. The list clearly skews towards more recent years because there is more footage readily available for this compilation when there are bigger flops in the annals of NFL history, players taken 1st overall that never played in the NFL. The Isaiah Wilson pick probably didn't need to be on the list, because it was 29th pick. My general rule when it comes to busts is, he had to be a top 5 pick or have had a lot of hype going into the draft. It was a story that he fell in the first round and it looked like a steal, as was the case with Johnny Manziel, when the Browns could have taken Derek Carr or Jimmy Garoppolo instead of Manziel who seldom played. I would have included Corey Coleman on this list as well - because Cleveland infamously took five wide receivers in the same draft because of analytics. A better list would be to rank the 10 teams that have had the most bad draft picks, since the NFL merger. I would guess, Cleveland Browns, Cincinnati Bengals, Los Angeles Rams, Atlanta Falcons, and New Orleans Saints would be the top 5 or so. In their history, the Raiders have generally done well in the draft - except with quarterbacks like JaMarcus Russell and Todd Marinovich or more recent CBs like DJ Hayden, Damon Arnette, and Gareon Conley, or, in bizarre trades like the one that sent the 1st overall pick to the Chiefs for Cotton Davidson that KC used to pick Buck Buchanan (Hall of Fame), or the one in 2005 for Washington. And I forgot, Clelin Ferrell at 4th overall, but they made up for it with Maxx Crosby in the 4th round.

Thank you for actually *excluding* Tim Couch. He was not the bust people think he was. He actually had some very good moments and led an expansion Browns team to a playoff game in his fourth year

2014 browns took both gilbert and manziel. that is the epitome of bad drafting

Rip Charles Rogers

You forgot to mention the blank tapes incident about JaMarcus Russell. Oh you haven’t heard? The Raiders coaches were so convinced that Russell wasn’t watching an ounce of film so they sent him home with blank tapes and called them “blitzes” and told him to study it. Then he came back the next day. The Raiders coaches asked him what he thought of the film he said “looks good” 😬

Dion Jordan was suspended 10 games for adderall… pretty sure that’s what the Seahawks defensive backs were suspended for and 3/4 of the suspensions either were lessened or removed completely.

The only reason people have Russell ranked over Leaf is because Russell went #1 and Leaf went #2. When you factor in numbers, lack of work ethic, and attitude, I think Ryan Leaf is the biggest bust in NFL history.

Where’s Joey Harrington on this list? The guy was a train wreck from the beginning

Ryan Leaf is nothing short of an inspiration….said he was happier making 15 an hour working for a recovery center than making 5 million a year playing quarterback in NFL

If this list has taught me one thing it’s that if the rams have the #2 pick they shouldn’t even think about drafting a OL. Also thank god the rams found Aaron Donald with that second first round pick in 2014

Do bad NBA draft picks next?

As an Eagles fan, the pick that made me mad the most was Jalen Reagor. But, if it weren’t for that, we wouldn’t have both Devonta Smith and AJ Brown together right now.

Tony Mandrich was number 2 draft pick in 1989 Top 5 1 Troy Aikman 3 Barry Sanders 4 Derrick Thomas 5 Deion Sanders All but Mandrich are in the Hall Of Fame

Makes me not want to watch football anymore

I knew Leinart couldn’t handle the NFL after how he reacted to the Rose Bowl loss. Been a whinny brat for two decades now.

"New York Jets select..." "OH GOD NO"

Just had to throw in the comment about black qb's... Andre Ware is an example of why it took so long, not a shame on scouts or the NFL.

Cant really call someone a bust if they get injured... right?

As a 49ers fan I always wonder why AJ Jenkins doesn't get talked about more, Drafted #30 and had 17 career catch for 223 yard and no TDs. 0 catches as a rookie and he was healthy all year.

Who’s Here After The NY Jets Traded Former Number 2 Overall Pick Of The 2021 NFL Draft Former Starting QB & Now Bust Zach Wilson (2021-23) From BYU To The Denver Broncos Earlier This Week?

Jamarcus Russell was not the 3rd overall pick, he was the 1st overall pick, and he demanded a massive contract, which is why the NFL limits what a team is capable of paying a rookie, definitely worse than Ryan Leaf.

Emtman never won the Heisman, he was nominated for the Heisman.

Leaf i can understand, Russell as well, but manziel, before the draft, they said that he won't be as good in the nfl with defensive players are faster, and that he had to work on techniques and film room, yet the browns still took him.

Johnny Manziel: worst draft bust ever!!! End of conversation!

Emtman never won the Heisman.

Why did Cincy think a qb that completed 36 out 57 throws was a good idea? 😂

20:15 First Overall

Man for awhile cleavland probably had the worst stretch of first round picks I’ve ever seen , and they usually had multiple every year

I'm ashamed to admit that I thought Rosen was gonna have a Fitzpatrick type career.

Reggie Bush should have made the list he had more seasons less than 500 yards than seasons more than that. His last year he averaged NEGATIVE yards.

Bo Jackson is easily the worst pick in NFL history. Picked 1st overall and never played for the team that drafted him.

There was a very poor draft in '88 named Ted Gregory who was supposed to be this great NT prospect who was a major disappointment who was traded for Sean Knight, who was in the same spot in NOLA. The Broncos and Saints traded problems. Denver could have drafted Chris Spielman [4 PB 1 1st All-pro], CB Eric Allen [6PB,1st APro], Jumbo Elliott or HoF Thurman Thomas among others.

Correction. Steve Entman didn’t win the Heisman. Only 1 defensive player has won the Heisman and that was Charles Woodson.

It’s the same with soccer academies. Could be amazing at youth level but can’t cut it at the top. Opposite is true too. Lower drafted players could be world beaters.

The Ravens and Kyle Boller. They gave up two first rounders to get him. Their own in the draft they took him, and the one a season later.

As a St Louisan, according to the nfl, the St Louis rams don't exist

And Jamarcus Russell still hasn't learned his lesson. I doubt he passed the Wunderlich test.

Stone Cold is not cheesy, it's a fantastic Action Film

The legend of dion Jordan. It’s worse that the dolphins traded up for him, when lane Johnson would’ve been there.

0:04 sweating all that lean out..
