dawgpound3 Posted April 6, 2011 Report Share Posted April 6, 2011 http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/page2/story?page=kluck/receivers/070425 It talks about the percentage of receivers being a bust or being a pro-bowler and here's the interesting part: Even the can't miss prospects can turn out to be a bust. Perhaps AJ Green very well could be a bust and Julio Jones could be a all-star? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Buffalo Posted April 6, 2011 Report Share Posted April 6, 2011 OR Green can be an all start and Jones can be out of the league in 3 years due to injuries. You never know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
secondwave Posted April 6, 2011 Report Share Posted April 6, 2011 Yeah, he won't be a bust unless AJ Green has drug problems (as far as we know, he doesn't) like the other stud WR prospects before him. He's as sure of a thing at WR since Megatron. He's not QUITE at that level, but he's close. Jones on the other hand is a very good prospect, but he's not a can't-miss the same way Green is.

dawgpound3 Posted April 6, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 6, 2011 But the question is this if Jones is a very good prospect then... what makes the other receivers after Jones? Okay prospects or just not very good? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
secondwave Posted April 6, 2011 Report Share Posted April 6, 2011 They're good prospects. You're going on the deep end of the pool with that dumb logic. They're not 'very good prospects' so they must suck? Just because they're not elite, doesn't mean they're not good, or serviceable to be starters in the league. There are probably only 4-5 elite prospects in this draft (Dareus, Peterson, Green, Miller and MAYBE Prince/Fairley). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nw220 Posted April 6, 2011 Report Share Posted April 6, 2011 Green will have a good NFL career granted he lands in the right places (Cleveland)...Jones im not so sure about i think he could also be a pretty decent Reciever in the NFL, just think if he goes to St.Louis i think he will have a fine career..If he goes to Washington i think he will probaly be a bust...Alot to facter in is where a player gets drafted and what team he plays for it can make all the difference.. Reggie Wayne and Marvin Harrison/Peyton Manning Torry Holt and Issac Bruce/Kurt Warner I think that has alot to do with whether a player is a bust or is great or some recievers are just speical regardless of who there QB is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
