Somebody's Always Got to Take Dig at the Browns!

If we want to talk about first round busts, look at seattle's Aaron Curry who is only allowed to be on the field of play only in running situations.
Last week he Aaron Curry watched from the sideline more than he played on the field last week against Chicago.

And if you want to pick a linebacker in the first round dont you want your first rounder on the field for all 3 downs? I'm glad we didn't draft him, he cannot play against the pass.

Is Bills linebacker Aaron Maybin the worst player in the NFL?
By Chris Chase
The Buffalo Bills defense is ranked last in the NFL in points allowed. The unit has allowed the most rushing yards in the league. Its point differential is an NFL-worst -77. And, of course, the Bills are the only team in the NFL without a win. So if the Bills defense is the worst unit of the worst team in the league, does that mean the defense's worst player is also the worst player in the entire NFL?
[Related: The biggest draft busts of the decade]
Evidently, according to Jerry Sullivan of the Buffalo News. In a Thursday column, Sullivan says second-year linebacker Aaron Maybin(notes) is the worst player in the NFL because he can't get on the field for the Bills defense:
It's quite possible that Maybin is the worst player in the NFL (though a case could be made for John McCargo(notes), another former Bills' first-rounder who has been inactive all six games).
There's a good chance Maybin will be inactive again this week [he wasn't activated last week in Baltimore, the first time that has happened in his pro career] against Kansas City, the NFL's top rushing team. After a year and a half, he hasn't gotten better. If anything, he's regressed. Maybin has 21 tackles in 21 games. He has no sacks. This season, he's been on the field for 66 plays, with few tangible results.
The Bills gave Maybin a $15 million signing bonus after his holdout in 2009. That's not the sort of return on investment that made capitalism great. If Maybin were some seventh-round pick -- like, say, Ryan Fitzpatrick(notes) or Stevie Johnson -- he'd be long gone by now.
Maybin was the 11th pick of the 2009 draft. He's already been moved from defensive end to linebacker, but hasn't found his role in the Bills' new 4-3 scheme. Coaches won't put him on special teams and undrafted rookies are getting more playing time than him.
Sullivan says it's because Maybin is terrible and should be cut. The latter part might be true, but I refuse to believe Maybin is an awful football player. He did something at Penn State, enough to make him the No. 11 pick in the draft. (Yes, maybe the Bills picked him too high; but it was a couple spots too high, not a couple of rounds. Maybin wouldn't have dropped past, say, No. 20.) In most cases like this, it's a lack of work ethic that's the real culprit. That's why cutting Maybin would be silly right now. Give him some time to mature, then reevaluate. The deactivation could be the kick in the pants he needed. Or it could be the beginning of the end of his time with the Bills.
[Rewind: Star receiver voted most overrated player in league]
But is he the worst player in the NFL? Nah. As long as Jake Delhomme is still on a roster somewhere, Aaron Maybin doesn't have much to worry about.
Douche bag writer aside, who IS the worst player in the league? Obviously not some mook witting on the end of the bench somewhere, I'm thinking more like Alex Smith-worst?

Alex Smith was a high first round pick- and I'll agree with the Gips- Jamarcus Russelll may well go down as one of the biggest busts in the history of the NFL, along with Tony Mandarich, Brian Bosworth, and Ryan Leaf.

Besides the money he cost the Browns nothing? Last I checked money was something and he doesn't deserve to start ANYWHERE in the NFL so in my eyes he's not better than the Bills players listed. Delhomme has been bad for several years now and when the Browns signed him I was on here saying he was going to be TERRIBLE. Sure enough he's terrible. He's pretty damn bad man.
