Why?

Excluding the obvious attraction of big busts, of course

Because the whole point of the thread was to put your money where your mouth is and put in writing who would bust and who would thrive... having this thread this season we should atleast be able to judge the good picks... maybe get an idea about the busts.... it's all in fun given how many people on this board tend to have a great eye for talent, yet noone keeps them honest

Bump the thread in three years, otherwise we will just have a bunch of premature "I told you so's"

We did well in the "steal" category from April....

Sanchez will be a bust!
Crabtree will be a disappointment at least for this year ( Hope I am wrong on Crabtree )

ummm it'll be gone in three years... unless of course someone (me) actually bumps this thread from going out the door every 6 moths or so... that's one thing that sf49ers.com is much better about....

I think Mark Sanchez and Nate Davis will become good quarterbacks.

I think Matt Stafford and Josh Freeman will be busts, especially if either starts year one.

Best Players

1. Mark Sanchez (I have tasted the Dilfer Kool-Aid and it is good)
2. Jason Smith
3. B.J. Raji

Biggest Busts

1. Matt Stafford (Lions WILL FIND A WAY to screw him up)
2. Michael Crabtree (we'll see who eats crow on this one)
3. Brian Orakpo (Epic tweener fail)

The Redskins love what theyve seen so far from Orakpo in preseason

Tyson Jackson is going to be as good or better than Richard Seymour.
