Players they should have had in Campus Heroes

Since its a theme about how players did in college and not the Pros, they should include players that were really good in college but not good in NFL

Draft busts.

Examples

Lots of QBs to choose from.

Brady Quinn or Johnny Manziel or Ryan Leaf or Tim Couch or JaMarcus Russell.

Brian Bosworth.

Charles Rodgers.

Vernon Gholston.

Trent Richardson or Ron Dayne.

KiJana Carter.

Tony Mandarich.

how bout that dude who was like tyreek hill before tyreek hill but he was a bust in the nfl i forgot his name

jdawg0708

Sadly I would have a long list of other Browns to add to those you listed already. My top choice would be Courtney Brown for a bust I would want to see in this promo.

NoRazorBumpz

Seems like people missed your point that they should add more BUSTS, not guys that had decent careers.

nativepimp445

Very nice list Vince Young Matt Leinart Reggie bush people like that also

MUTSG

Vince Young was one of the best college QBs of all time, and then won NFL rookie of the year before he lost his mind. Maybe there will be a round 2.

Rahim the Rocket Ismail Rashaan Salaam Kordell Stewart Josh Freeman

Every year they try to convince us that Tim Tebow was a great QB and was tolerable as a human being. Neither is true.

GenoPolanco

I think you’re mistaking Tebow with Vick.

MUTSG

You have a Bronco’s icon so I feel your Tebow pain. I think the Broncos gave up a first, second and fourth round pick for him. Ouch. But yeah, I’m so over EA’s obsession with Vick. So I’m sure they’ll do it again.

Not a fan, but Geno was a dude in college. And he’s the starter in Seattle…

Synopsis

How has no one mentioned Vince Young or Reggie bush?

NoRazorBumpz

OP said they should add BUSTS, not necessarily guys that had decent runs, albeit not perennial all-pros.

Synopsis

You could argue they were both busts. Young was the first qb drafted in his draft at 3 if I recall and he only threw for over 2500 yards once, and 2500 is terrible anyway. He was well under 60 percent on his accuracy, and was out of the league in like 5 or 6 years. Bush was in the league a while, but never really did much, less than 50 yards total per game for his career and he was a second overall pick. I'd say they were busts. I don't know how young ever made a pro bowl, he averaged like 150 yards a game which is beyond terrible.

Synopsis

Replied to the wrong spot.

NoRazorBumpz

That’s an average NFL career, for both of them. They were average. If your criteria for bust is a first rounder that ended up average, fine. But I think the unanimous definition of bust is more along the line of the Jamarcus Russell types.

Edited by NoRazorBumpz

Synopsis

Russel, Manzel, etc.. were extreme cases, not the norm for a bust. Those numbers aren't average anyway. The average yardage for a qb when young played was over 200 and climbed each year he was still in the league upwards of 230 on average. Young averaged 150 for his whole career. 150 isn't average.... not since like leather helmets. His best passing year was 1000 yards under the average.... for his best year! He threw more interceptions in his career than tds. The list goes on and on. Thats absolutely a bust.

Reggie Bush was the Hero Master last year

Vince Young was a hero also

Synopsis

I know but when you think of college players who were superstars at their schools these two guys have to come to mind in the first few. Ea has the same legends besides a few every year, same with most feared. I do like that they added some new guys but come on... they were in possibly the best football game ever played.

M_Mac_2151

Agree 100%

Would love to see Ron Dayne!

Wouldn't be hard to make a long list of players that are in the college football hall of fame, but that did not produce in the NFL.

Gatglelel

Tavon Austin needed a card

SFtheBIGGAfigga

Mike Williams, usc Eric Crouch, Heath Schuler, Robert Gallery, Lawrence Phillips, Akili Smith and Russell Wilson.

omg_a_hoe

Jalen hurts would’ve been the master. Awesome in college, huge bust in the nfl

jimshredder

He was a late round pick

Wentz would be the bust

vexysting

huge bust is a bit too harsh hes not trash and hes still 24

splder2_ybanana

GURLEY

jimshredder

Injuries

Gurley was the top RB for a season

Travis2334

It's a better idea, maybe not busts per se, but at least players who werent AS succesful in the nfl.

Also - not a fan of some teams getting older players and some current. Wtf is that

vexysting

its a good balance theres been two legends only promo drops already
