Okay, so Brown and Carr were #5 and #4 on my list. But they could go either way with some, because of injuries and a poor offensive line. Let's see who else is mentioned. Back to the list, shall we????


#3 Adam "Pacman" Jones- CB, West Virginia
#6 Overall Pick by Tennessee Titans, 2005



Wow... so many reasons why Pacman makes this list. Had Public Enemy made "Don't Believe The Hype" in the late after 2005 I would be convinced that it was made especially for Jones. To be quite frank if I may, Jones is a word that I don't like to use.. but let's just say it rhymes with mouchebag. Anyone remember the Real Sports interview with Bryant Gumbel????

From the very beginning trouble brewed with this guy. Not long after the 2005 draft, Jones was linked to a few incidents, including a fight which led to probation. Then there was the taunting of fellow teammate Keith Bullock. Bullock spoke out about Jones skipping camp because of a contract dispute and Pacman responded by reminding Bullock that he wasn't even a 1st round pick himself. So he had no right to respond to his situation. Oh...okay

Before I get into his long off-the-field record, let's look at his football career. He's had 4 INTs TOTAL, in his NFL career. Four..... Cuatro... He also has one sack in his pro career as well. Impressive, right?! WRONG! He did excel as a punt and kick returner, averaging 12.9 yds in 2006 (he led the league that year). He also had 3 punt returns for TDs, which tied an NFL record at the time. His sophomore season was pretty good for him.

But it all went downhill from there. Jones was suspended for the entire 2007 for numerous off-the-field issues. The most memorable was the Las Vegas strip club shooting, in which a man became paralyzed from the incident. When he vowed to stay away from strip clubs and trouble, he was spotted at an NYC strip club the night before he was to meet with Commissioner Goodell the following morning, regarding reinstatement. The strip club was a few block down from the NFL's headquarters, go figure.

When he was finally reinstated, he was traded to the Cowboys, where he basically did nothing and earned a paycheck in the process. He was released following the 2008 season. As of right now he's jobless. With all of the potential Jones had, he couldn't stay out of trouble. Not everyone can adapt to the responsibilities of being in the NFL... Jones was one of them.



#2 Kyle Boller- QB, California
#19 Overall Pick by Baltimore Ravens


Everyone knows that Ravens GM Ozzie Newsome is one of the best GMs in the business. He's drafted Ray Lewis, Jonathon Ogden, and Ed Reed. He's a great evaluator at talent. But drafting Kyle Boller was one pick I'm sure he'd like to have back.

The big hype about Boller coming out of college was, he could throw a football 60 yards while kneelingon one knee. Former HC Brian Billick was enamored by this info and wanted Boller to be the QB of the Ravens' future. Never mind the fact that he only had one good year at Cal during his tenure. Noo... Billick wanted this guy... and had Newsome trade back in the 1st round to get him.

Boller never really got comfortable in the Ravens offense. He always looked like a deer in headlights when he stepped out of the huddle. His number aren't very impressive either, with a 56.9% career completion pct, 45 TDs and 44 INTs. The most memorable game I have of him is against the Colts on a Sunday Night game. Boller went down with a toe injury and some of the fans in the stadium start cheering. The most classless thing I had ever seen, but it just showed the frustrations fans had with waiting for Boller to become a real QB.

Boller was the great enigma. He would have a week where he would show up and do great. Folks would start thinking, he's turning the corner, he's getting it now. This is it, finally, what we've waited for. And then the following week would come and he would bomb... HARD!. It was almost like Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde and you wondered which one was going to come out and play.

No matter what happened, Boller was always a class act. He never took the blame off of him, he never pointed fingers and always knew what to say. He was known for being a stand up guy when it came to criticism from the media and fans. Too bad it didn't continue on the football field.



#1 will be revealed tomorrow! See ya then......
