1st Round Picks Destined to be Busts

Dustin Keller; TE; New York Jets...Keller should be a decent pass catching TE, but you don't draft a TE in the first round who you don't expect to run and pass block as well. Therefore, Keller's stats will be fine, but only because there is no stat that can show how well you run block.

 

Aqib Talib; CB; Tampa Bay Buccaneers...Ronde Barber, the Buccs other CB, is a phenom, which could hurt Talib. QBs will be throwing in his direction more than he can handle. If he is up to the challenge then Tampa Bay could end up with a great CB duo, but I doubt it. He is also prone to over committing when he thinks he knows a WR's route, which means he can be easily shaken with a double move.
