There is a huge difference between a "bust" and a player that starts his second season. Ryan Leaf was a bust and started his rookie season. Mark Ingram may have not fulfilled his 1st round status, or pulled a full load his rookie season.. or yet.... but he is far from a bust. |

It's a complete waste. |
