That is one of the things that I heard from more then one person that year that hurt DJ....high Texas picks often tend to be overhyped. Guess the future will tell won't it? I'm predict both Rodrique Wright and Huff will prove in 5 years not to be worthy of first round picks....
Joining the list of texas flops Mike williams, Jammer, Redding, Cedric Benson et. al.
Vasher is the only one I'm aware of that has exceeded expectations for a UT prospect. DJ hasn't. Roy Williams hasn't.

Shaun Rogers is easily one of the best DTs in the NFL. Easily.
DJ hasn't exceeded expectations, but he has lived up to high expectations. You think he's a bust? Jammer may not have lived up to expectations, but I think "bust" would be overly critical.
As for Mike Williams, Roy Williams, and Cedric Benson, They are offense. You said defense.
"Most" implies more rather than less. Saying most defensive players out of Texas are busts is simply wrong.
