    As the NFL's regular season approaches, just wondering who you think will be the biuggest bust of this year's draft.

    Mario Williams, simply because he'll never be able to live up to the hype.

    My one thought is Leinart because he has missed almost all of camp, however, if there ever was a situation built for a young QB to succeed interms of having weapons, it is Arizona

    I thought about Leinart too.

    Based on how fragile Warner has been over his career, there's little doubt Leinart will get a chance to play this season. Missing such a big portion of training camp as a rookie -- especially at QB -- will definitely make it a challenge for him to deliver.

    Two of the all-time biggest and best busts:

    Whoops. It was the photo of Sohia Loren looking down Jayne Mansfield's reather low-cut dress. Don't know what happened.

    Isn't the Vikings' first-round pick already done for the season? It's not a bust, mind you, but I'd heard they wanted Greenway to fill a starting role.

    Yeah, but I think it's hard to call the guy a bust when he got hurt.

    Let's say his season is a bust. And it couldn't have happened to a nicer team.

    One thought about Leinart — he's might be better off on the bench as much as possible until Arizona improves that line.
    Obviously, Arizona's receivers are good, but Leinart's going to need a consistently quicker release than he ever needed at USC.
    And I don't think Leinart likes getting hit.
    Obviously, nobody likes getting hit, but I don't think Leinart handles it well.

    Moron.

    Actually, I've just never liked the Vikings. All the trouble they've had over the past few seasons has only reinforced my belief they're a bunch of thugs.

    Childress is also a prick, according to a few of my trusted colleagues who've dealt with him in the past.
