Biggest Miss for the TBSers
One of mine was Jermaine Kelly. I loved his tape. He was a playmaker at WR in HS and I thought he would even be a good WR if he wanted to.
Marcus Farria - I thought he was a huge talent. Not a can't miss because he was a known risk but he looked like an explosive edge player to me.

I don't even think this way ... because I think this current Petersen regime can actually develop players.
So, it's hard to say how Farria, Middleton etc ... would have developed under Petersen's team.
All I know is that they didn't pan out with previous programs ... so it doesn't matter to me.
Woulda, coulda, shouda.
I would bet dollars to donuts that Dante Pettis would have been mediocre under previous administrations ... not a knock on Dante - just a belief.
Or Gaines ... Vea ... anyone. -

I was super excited about both of those guys too.RoadDawg55 said:Who is a guy you thought would be great but didn't pan out?

I was also really excited about Deontae Cooper, prior to knee injury #1. His highlight tape was ridiculous.
Some others:
James Sample.
Josh Shirley.
Andru Pulu.
Cedric White.
Jayson Bass.
Jason Shelley.

For me, Eric Kohler. He was rated rediculously high by Scout and I know one mag had him as one of the top 25 high school players in the country.
I know he had trouble staying healthy but he had a really disapointing career.
Also, he looked like a fat skater kid/pen and paper RPG player who probably wore his shirt in the swimming pool -
Sample was not the problem. He got drafted didn't he? They wanted him to play linebacker.AIRWOLF said:
