Let's start a pool as to how long they'll wait before they announce his career is over.

I say: THREE WEEKS.

Another high draft pick in the bust column for Uncle Ted. Good luck to you, Datone. Neck injuries and the NFL don't mix well.

Why call him a bust? An injury is different then a bust.
A bust means the guy sucked, which I don't believe he did.
Injuries can happen to anyone at any time.
Besides, I don't know how serious it is. Has anyone heard anything?

Yep, he's one of the few first round draft picks that's playing well ... when healthy that is. Unfortunately he's kind of like Jermichael Finley in that he does a lot of things that don't hit the stat sheet, but are still very huge for the team that a lot of less aware fans just don't see.

You guys go ahead and split hairs between bust and injuries. If a player drafted in the first three rounds isn't an every down player contributing every game he is a bust. You want to categorize the Justin Harrells, Nick Perrys, Derrick Sherrods, Datone Jones differently than the Jamal Reynolds and Tony Manderich's that's your prerogative. I lump them all together as failed draft picks.

Its not splitting hairs.

If a player busts out of the NFL its because they didn't have the talent to play in it, and the GM who drafted him screwed up.

If a player suffers a major injury and is forced to retire it wasn't due to a lack of talent and unless the report on said player was that he likely was going to suffer a major injury, said GM should receive zero fault.

The world isn't as black and white as you'd like to portray it. For example if we're going by your harsh pass/fail analysis how would you classify players who've passed away prematurely? Guys like Joe Delaney or Len Bias who would have been mega-stars but died too soon, are they busts? GMs screw that one up too?
