PFT CommenterThe Green Bay Packers drafted a serial killer and he's the biggest bust in NFL history
People forget that the Green Bay Packers drafted a serial killer. In 1974, they drafted a legit serial killer. His name is Randy Woodfield... Would you say he's like the biggest bust in NFL draft history?
Big CatIt's time to ask if Andrew Luck is a bust
Is it time to ask, is Andrew Luck a bust? Andrew Luck has caused me so many gambling woes, and the latest one this week where he was just throwing the game away... I can't really tell you anything from [the weekend] except that I hate Andrew Luck. Like, that's my biggest takeaway.
Big CatReggie Bush was a bust in the NFL
Reggie Bush, who's been pretty much a bust. So it's Reggie Bush, Lendell White, Vince Young, and Matt Leinart. Wow.
Big CatI think all the quarterbacks drafted in the first round have very high bust potential
Darnold, Rosen, Josh Allen, Lamar Jackson, and Baker, you could tell me in three years all out of the league, and I would be like, yeah, okay. Because it's one of those things in the NFL, you just talk yourself into these guys.
Big CatZion Williamson will be a big time bust
Zion Williamson, bust. Big time bust. That guy stinks. He's got no explosiveness. That's what I'm saying because he's got a ton of explosiveness. So if you just say it's not NBA explosiveness, people are like, wow, that guy knows something that we don't know.
Big CatHarry Kane is a bust because he only scores from point-blank range
Harry Kane, still a bust in my mind [because] he just only scores from like two feet out. He basically didn't even have to [try for the hat trick]. He just showed up, and I could have gotten that hat trick.
PFT CommenterMarcus Mariota or Jameis Winston will officially be labeled a bust this year
One of those two guys [Mariota or Winston] is going to suck again and we go bust, bust, bust.
Kirk GoldsberryZion Williamson is a bust-proof prospect
The best shots in the league are still near the rim, and he's going to be able to get there. He's a big boy, and he's athletic. He's a bust-proof, in my opinion.
HankBronny James Jr. will be a bust
You are forgetting that this is all about a mountain of greatness. Not predicting future greatness. I still went with Bronny James Jr. Plus, he's going to be a bust.
PFT CommenterNoah Fant is a bust
Noah Fant, no offense. Looks like bust. I'm putting the bust tag right now on Noah Fant. Bad attitude. I told you about bad attitude. More like no effect on this game. Got him. Trash. Bust. Burn. Put it on the board.
Big CatKyler Murray is an absolute bust
Kyler Murray looks pretty bad. [...] We're ready to declare after this first half maybe Kyler Murray's a bust. [...] Kyler Murray is an absolute bust.
Uncle ChapsI always thought Nick Foles was going to be a huge bust in Jacksonville
To be completely honest, my excitement about the Nick Foles era was completely fake. It was fake. I thought that he was going to be a bust. I thought that he was going to be a huge bust in Jacksonville where everything was perfect for him in the Eagle system.
Big CatZion Williamson is a Duke bust
Might be out for the whole year. Jesus Christ, dude. Bust. Fucking bust. Another Duke bust.
Big CatPatrick Mahomes would have been a bust if he were drafted by the Chicago Bears
This is why I've always said when everyone's like well, we could have Patrick Mahomes. Patrick Mahomes would have got hit by a bus if he had been a Chicago Bear. There is just it's never going to be in the cards for the Bears to be able to move the football.
Big CatTua Tagovailoa has bust tendencies and the Dolphins should draft a quarterback at number three
To [Tua], I think it might be a bust. Well, he has, he has bust tendencies right now... You're not going to be back in the top three for a long time. Take the quarterback and Tua still has a ton of value. Like if you want to trade Tua, I bet you can get a second round pick for him at least.
Billy FootballTrevor Lawrence gives off Paxton Lynch vibes and could be a bust
Trevor Lawrence kind of gives me Paxton Lynch vibes... Your best case scenario with Trevor Lawrence is Tom Brady. Your worst case scenario is Paxton Lynch... His throwing motion reminds me a lot of Paxton Lynch's... they kind of like are built the same.
PFT CommenterThe Bears will draft Kyle Trask and he will be a bust
I'm calling it right now. They're going to draft Kyle Trask, and then he's going to stink, and [Big Cat's] life will be made a living hell by a quarterback who sucks that looks exactly like Billy Football.
Big CatMac Jones will be a bust because he is crying in his DUI mugshot
I like my quarterbacks when they get a mug shot to not have a little cry in their eyes. Oh, he's sad in it? Yeah, look it up. He's got a tiny bit of cry in his eyes. So I'm saying bust just on that. Just based on that.
Steven CheahJustin Fields is the Red Star guy of the draft who will not bust
My red star guy, honestly, Justin Fields. I think everyone's overthinking Justin Fields. The fact that he's not going to be a top three quarterback... This is my guy. I am sure he's going to do good. He's the guy we should draft on our team. I'm fully vouching for this guy.
PFT CommenterTua Tagovailoa's training camp interceptions will fuel the 'Alabama QBs are busts' narrative all season
Tua threw approximately 300 interceptions in practice yesterday. And so now... there's going to be reporters that fire up a tweet every single time he throws an interception in training camp. It's going to snowball, and then that's going to feed right back into the Alabama quarterbacks can't play.
PFT CommenterTrevor Lawrence is officially a bust
I have one note for that game. Trevor Lawrence, all capitals, bust. I'm more of the mindset that it's fun to say that Trevor Lawrence is a bust.
Big CatTrevor Lawrence is showing bust-like tendencies
I'm not going to say [Trevor Lawrence] is a bust just yet, but he's showing me bust-like tendencies. I can't really judge anything in this system and the whole Urban [Meyer] environment.
Billy FootballArch Manning might be a bust because his high school competition is mid-tier
Is he a bust? Is Arch Manning a bust... To have the discussion. No, because he's lost in high school, which I think is important for a quarterback's progression point... [but] his league's a little, like it's kind of mid tier.
PFT CommenterTrevor Lawrence has 'bust smells' coming from him
This is just, it's becoming a situation where it's impossible to evaluate them. I'm going to need at least three years of tape on Trevor Lawrence before I make a definitive declaration. But he's, there's some bus smells coming from him.
Big CatTrevor Lawrence might be a bust after his late-game spike play
That spike he had on third down, what the fuck was that? That was crazy... he burned third down with the, with the spike. It's like, why wouldn't you, why don't you throw it to the end zone? It was crazy... that one made me think, like he might actually be a bust.
Uncle ChapsI will get my big toenails removed if Trevor Lawrence doesn't reach an AFC Championship on his rookie contract
I'm so confident that Trevor Lawrence isn't a bust. If they don't make the AFC Championship on his rookie contract, I will get... five years... I will go both of my big toenails removed.
PFT CommenterAaron Rodgers' new contract with the Packers is a bust if he doesn't win three of the next four Super Bowls
I think that if Aaron Rogers doesn't win three out of the four next Superbowl's, this contract is kind of a bust. If it is, if it is 50 million, if he is the highest paid player in the history of the NFL... you would assume that the highest paid player ever would also be a player capable of leading you to dynasty.
Billy FootballMalik Willis will either be a Hall of Famer or a complete bust
Like he could actually like, you know, it's either going to translate and he's going to be like Patrick Mahomes or it's not. One of those things where it's... so like hall-of-famer or bust. Exactly. Yep. I like that.
Big CatLeBron James' Lakers tenure has been a bust (excluding the Bubble title)
Would you say LeBron's time in LA has been a complete bust because we don't count the Mickey Mouse championship? And do you as a Lakers fan feel disgraced because you basically threw Kobe aside and started loving LeBron? They are right now out of the playoffs... it's been hard defending it.
Steven CheahTrayvon Walker will be a bust
I want to say Trayvon Walker, just because like I'm a traits over production guy and that's what the whole draft is... we haven't seen it on field... What are we doing here? ... I would say if I would pick one bust, it would be him.
Jake MarshAll Duke players from the 2022 draft will be busts
All the Duke guys are going to be a bust. They can't win when it matters most because they lose when all the pressures on them... they did lose in the Final Four. They did send out their Hall of Fame coach out with a loss.
Big CatTrevor Lawrence is officially back in the bust category
Trevor Lawrence is now back officially into the bust category. ... This is as rock bottom as you can be if you're a Jaguars fan because you have the guy that was supposed to be the next Peyton Manning, the surest like sure thing. Oh, and then you might miss.
Big CatTrevor Lawrence has officially arrived as a franchise quarterback
Trevor Lawrence, can we say it has officially arrived? ... I am firmly in the Trevor Lawrence is your franchise quarterback. Yeah. Like I'm, I'm set with that. He's no longer a bust.

Victor Wembanyama from France. The Frenchman not played in Summer League. Bust. Oh, okay. I like that take.
Big CatThe 49ers trade for Trey Lance is one of the worst busts in NFL history
Find another team that trades three first round picks and misses that badly on a quarterback and still is potentially a Super Bowl team... but that has to be one of the worst bust slash trades in, in NFL history.
Big CatDylan Raiola is already a bust after his commitment poem
What is this? So fellow fans await with hope in the air for Dylan to choose his purpose to declare in a weekend's decision, destiny calls to fulfill his purpose. Where a new dynasty enthralls... He's already a bust in my eyes. I'm happy for Nebraska fans, but you can't be feeling good about that poem.
PFT CommenterCaitlin Clark is a bust because she can't win the big one
Are we sure Caitlin Clark is actually good. Ooh Bust can't win the can't win the big one.
Big CatIf Scottie Scheffler doesn't win at least five Green Jackets, his career is a bust
Scotty's just, he's, he's only 27 years old. How over under, what would be a disappointment in terms of total major? Yeah. If he doesn't win five green jackets. I think his career was a bust. Yeah. I'd say he got two right now at 27. I think he has to get to 10 majors.
MaxI want the Brewers' pitcher Brody Brecht to be the biggest bust in MLB history after he was selected over Ranger Suárez
I now hate this guy. I now want this guy to be the biggest bust in MLB history. Ranger Suárez has a 1.94 in 13 games... How do you possibly look at that and be like, this guy is more deserving than Ranger Suárez?
MaxPaul George will be the biggest bust in Philadelphia sports history
Paul George, Playoff P, Pre-season P has injured himself again... he's probably gonna go down as the biggest bust in Philly history. Him and Andrew Bynum... Ben Simmons... Markelle Fultz. Playoff P is in the running right now for biggest bust.
