i still say more than half of all qb's drafted in the top 5 spots would have become nfl players if it weren't for the browns, raiders, lions and bengals......

so if you knew you were getting Gotskowski or whoever, a 2nd round pick is still too high?

it's a moot point as it's still a gamble....and i'm asking a theoretical question in a best case scenario and i'm still not sure so obviously it was terrible.....but whatevs

jesus christ...

On Monday, the deadline to exercise fifth-year options for 2013 first-rounders, we found out that options were declined on several big-name players from that draft class, including Jacksonville Jaguars offensive tackle Luke Joeckel (No. 2 overall), Cleveland Browns pass rusher Barkevious Mingo (No. 6), Tennessee Titans guard Chance Warmack (No. 10), Buffalo Bills quarterback EJ Manuel (No. 16) and Minnesota Vikings receiver-returner Cordarrelle Patterson (No. 29).

Other options declined: Oakland Raiders CB D.J. Hayden and Devner Broncos nose tackle Sylvester Williams, although you get the idea that both could still end up staying with their respective teams at less money.

The Kansas City Chiefs picked up No. 1 pick Eric Fisher's option, which was in some doubt. The San Diego Chargers picked up the fifth year for OG D.J. Fluker, the 11th pick that year.

Y'all forgot about Janikowski. At the time, a joke of a draft pick. A kicker? Really? Y'all talkin about the second round, he was a first round pick.

17 years with one team though. I mean, they overdrafted him for sure, but it provided stability and consistency at a position that wins and loses games. Recall that when he was drafted (2000) Oakland was very good and a legit title contender. He was seen as a necessity.

Would he have been there in the third round in 2000? Who knows. Al Davis gave no hecks. They got the guy they wanted.

Better off having him throw knuckleballs. There's only 64 spots for kickers and punters and figure soccer is played in 190 countries or some ****.... the pool of potential NFL kickers includes 3 billion boys.

There's 150 rotation spots in MLB, and the pool of potential pitchers is 1/10th the size of potential placekickers. Between latin america, japan, and the USA, that's not nearly as many people.

Knuckleballs.

Have him throw submarine. Submarine lefty knuckleballer. He'd pitch to 1-2 batters every other day or so, and play until he was 50 years old. He'd make millions per season to throw 70 mph trash to lefty pull hitters.

Matt Bush can suck a bag of ****s. Didn't he kill someone drunk driving, and didn't he get another DWI after the fact? He should be in prison.

A few weeks after the Padres drafted him in 2004, Bush was arrested on suspicion of felony assault, misdemeanor trespass, disorderly conduct, and underage drinking, after he allegedly fought with security trying to escort him out of a bar.[17]
In early 2009, Bush was allegedly involved in a drunken assault at a San Diego high school, which was caught on camera. According to witnesses, a drunken Bush beat up a high school lacrosse player with a golf club while screaming, "I'm Matt ****ing Bush!", which was recorded on videotape. This led the Padres to designate Bush for assignment following the team's signing of Floyd and then trade him to the Blue Jays.[5][10] Only a month later, he assaulted and berated a woman at a party in Florida, and was released by the Blue Jays for violating a "zero tolerance" agreement.[13]

Mugshot from the Charlotte County Sheriff's Office.
On March 22, 2012, Bush was arrested and charged with two counts of DUI with property damage, one count of DUI with serious bodily injury, one count of leaving the scene of an accident with an injury, one count of driving with a suspended license, and 2 counts of leaving the scene of an accident with damage to property. In the incident, Bush hit 72-year-old motorcyclist Tony Tufano on the Tamiami Trail (U.S. Route 41) northbound in Port Charlotte, Florida, running over his head as he fled the scene with a Dodge Durango belonging to teammate Brandon Guyer. According to a witness, Tufano survived the incident because he was wearing a helmet.[18] Bush was arrested in North Port, three miles down the road from the accident. He was on the road after getting kicked out of a nearby strip club for trying to climb on the stage. When he was arrested, Bush had a blood alcohol content of .18, more than double the legal limit in Florida.[15] Bush spent the 2012 season housed at the Charlotte County Jail on $440,000 bail (reduced from an initial $1.015 million bond), and pled not guilty at his arraignment (via closed-circuit TV from the Charlotte County Jail) on May 21. Bush remains a suspect in two other hit and run accidents further north on the Tamiami Trail in Venice that occurred earlier that day.[19] The following Sunday, Rays general manager Andrew Friedman announced that Bush would never play for the Rays organization again.[20] The Rays placed Bush on the restricted list for the 2012 season, meaning that he was no longer on the 40-man roster, nor did he accumulate service time.[21] He was officially released on October 6.
On December 18, Bush accepted a plea bargain and pleaded no contest to one count of DUI with great bodily injury. He was sentenced to 51 months in prison. As this is Bush's third DUI conviction in 10 years, he will not be able to drive legally in Florida for 10 years after his release from prison. In the process, Bush turned down a deal that had less prison time (3 years), but with 7 years probation owing to past alcoholism issues.[22][23] The Tufanos filed a $5 million civil suit against Bush, but settled in 2013 for a reported $200,000.[24]
Bush was housed at the Mayo Correctional Institution in Mayo, Florida, as of January 2015. He was released from prison on October 30, 2015.[25]

Poor guy! Hope he gets a 78th chance, so many misfortunes, and none of them his fault, except for you know, all of them.

Ran over a guys head, hit and run.

The equivalent of shooting a gun out a window into a crowd of people. But nobody died, I just hit that one guy but he got lucky and lived, so we're good, right?

Lets recap:

Turned down a plea deal that would have less jail time but more probation time, because he would rather be in jail than stop getting drunk once he gets out.

Three DUIs. Seriously injured and nearly killed people. Fled the scene, and of course pled not guilty, like the class act he is.

Attacked and beat a HS age kid with a golf club when he was 26 years old.

Hopefully he makes it to the majors? Hopefully a large predatory animal eats this son of a *****, and ****s him onto a patch of a good person's lawn where the grass might need a little nitrogen. For the first and only time in his existence will he prove to be anything but a net negative to the human species.
