Texas is just one of those schools that doesn't prepare players very well.

I believe all the top 10 guys were covered...if you take it to just 1st round or the school in general the list is not impressive...

I've heard Mike Mayock describe Texas players under Brown as being soft and ill prepared for the NFL. Like it's a country club atmosphere down there.

They prepared pretty well for the 2006 Rose Bowl.

Not a Texas fan at all. (CU) but ill bet this thread seemed like a good idea in theory, but when researched it wasn't as loaded with big name busts like imagined. Jammer is decent enough to have been labeled a minor probowl snub and Leonard Davis is a recent probowl guard. Benson is gonna be a starting HB somewhere next yr and Vince Young will get a few more chances before eventually busting. Meanwhile Roy Williams has turned out better than most recent top 10 WRs, he's part of the better case scenario discussion.

Pretty piss poor list that makes the point the other way. HSN1 if I may ask. Who is your favorite college team?

There isn't a team in the league that would go into the draft hoping to find a pro bowl, or even top 5 guard in the league, with the #2 overall pick.

I disagree. The draft is a crap shoot, even in the top five. It's not a certain proposition that a top five pick is going to be better than a 4th or 5th rounder. I think any player that turns into one of the best at his position for several years has to be seen as a success.

Nobody's drafting a guard in the top 5. He'd make as much or more in his rookie contract than the highest-paid veteran guard in the league. It's not a blue chip position (ie DE, DT, QB, RB, CB, WR). Same reason tight ends and safeties usually go mid first (although some safeties have gone as high as 6).

That's pretty much how everyone describes it. On the other hand, that country club atmosphere seems to keep some guys from leaving for the NFL before their senior year.

Quentin Jammer was a bust for his first 4 years in the league, but now he is one of the best DBs in the league.

He's become a good corner, but you're taking it a bit far.

People don't take guards #2 generally, but Davis is at worst, still the 4th best player of that particular top 10 (depending on how you rank Vick and if should still be considered a better choice). LT, Seymour, Vick, Davis, Andre Carter and maybe Justin Smith are the only 6 of that top 10 that shoulda been 1st rounders at all.
