Hey! I think we just found our new nose tackle!

I don't think there is anyone that TRULY understands the deep, deep, deep hatred for Oakland like us. I hate them so much I am tempted to register on their fan forum site just so I can tell them HA HA. But we have class, us Chiefs fans so I will resist rubbing it in their deserved faces. You know, even though the Chiefs were 4-12 and even though we are three years from our Super Bowl Championship, my soul dances a little bit when I see the Raiders fail. I have said it before: Al Davis IS evil. Reptillian Shapeshifter perhaps. :) Death to the Raiders. Long live the Chiefs.

I say Long Live Al Davis, he is the best owner of a hated rival!

No other quarterback taken #1 overall and signed by that team has been cut earlier than Russel.

Highest pick + size of contract + number of wins (7) + QB rating + length of time in city that drafted him = biggest bust of all time.

Still, it's nice to know that another AFC West rival has a close second!

While I see your point, some of these others have been royal busts on the field to even a greater degree than Russell. Frankly at this point Russell might find a team that can turn him around still. The story is over on the others.

Just as an example Drukenmiller was a late 1st round pick, but he only even played in 6 games, and couldn't even get a starting gig in the Arena Football League. Now that's a BUST.

I have to give the biggest bust to Ryan Leaf. He only won 4 games in 4 years, and was worse in all stats. Also consider that Russell played for the Raiders... that team would find ways to suck.

Jamarcus Russell:
4083 yds 18 tds 23 ints 52.1 comp% 65.2 rating

Ryan Leaf:
3666 yds 14 tds 36 ints 48.4 comp% 50.0 rating

Jamarcus Russell may have put up slightly better numbers, but he was also a bigger financial burden to his team. Also Ryan Leaf can minorly attribute injury woes to some of his poor numbers, Russell can't do the same. On top of all that Russell was chosen #1 overall, while Leaf was chosen #2 overall. I think for these reasons that argument can be made that Jamarcus was the bigger bust.

Thank you, Chief31 for fixing my post, don't know what I did wrong but I couldn't fix it.

Chiefs ROCK, and so do our Mods!

What happens in alot of quotes is that you select a section to put in boldface, and the first couple of characters in the end-quote (the "[" and the "/") also get bolded. That turns them into a part of the text, as opposed to serving the function they were meant for. But You're welcome.

If you look below, you will see that I have done this as an example...
