Pick the bust in the 2017 draft
-
My pick is Barnett as a bust.Overrated.
Of all the ones mentioned so far, I get the strongest feeling on this one as well.
My new contribution.... Cam Robinson... at least at OT. He may have a shot at being a decent OG, but I don't see a chance at OT.
Honorable mention: Fournette. I watch him and I see (no offense, Ag) Derrick Henry... good burst and straight ahead speed and power, but no lateral movement.

Derek Henry......forgot all about him......so, what happened with him?
I see he had a very nice per carry avg of 4.5.....but only got 100 touches...and only 4 games with 10 or more???.....why?
When I look at his game log, it appears his touches match up well with wins and losses.....with more touches they win.....no touches they lose......maybe playing from behind means more passes??.....I dunno.....
Was he a back up?.....does his coach not like to run?......is there an ex Browns coach making the calls?......

Because they acquired DeMarco Murray as their primary RB and they don't have enough sense to run Henry for the tough yards inside the 10 and for short yardage 1st down. The Titans was the worst possible place to land since they don't utilize him at all.
I watched a lot of their games and the Titans OC is an idiot when it comes to what they could do with a running game. They can gas 'em with Murray's outside game and gouge them when they're gassed with Henry on the inside. But they just don't have sense enough to even try it.

Ahhhh.....Demarco Murray......forgot about him....
Yep....that answers my question....he was the back up.....
Maybe this will be his year to break out......

Last I heard he was "skipping" TN's voluntary work-outs... did not sit too well with a couple teammates.
But I think you were onto a factor in your prior post... game situations. TN did not have a lot of leads to salt away, which is when you'd expect Henry to see more duty spelling Murray.
Ag, hear ya and trust ya, but goalline O is not as likely to pop Henry into a 2ndary, which is where he does most of his damage. And when there's no hole, I don't remember a lot of him plowing into the backs of his OL... more like stop-look-andgetwrappedup.

Good discussion here.
Here's a 5 minute video (below) that explains why Henry is missing the voluntary workouts in TN for anyone that is interested. I get the impression he'll have access to an ideal strength and conditioning program all the while.
I welcome the only Defensive Coordinator to earn a Superbowl Ring in New Orleans while understanding Revenge of the Nerds is a sequel. "Come get some!" -
It's what I don't see. He blocked a lot and that was in an offense that used the TE to block a lot.
FIFY

For my bust I'm choosing Caleb Brantley, put a penny in his belly button: kids a loafer.

That word's been out since he no-showed... as one of his teammates said, "I don't care. This is about team."
