http://people.bakersfield.com/home/Blog/zeropointzero/25459 The Miami Dolphins are betting $57.55 million ($30 million guaranteed because that&rsquo;s the only dollar amount that matters anymore) that Jake Long, a tackle from Michigan, won&rsquo;t join an elite list of all-time first-round draft stiffs, that at least according to the Baltimore Sun, includes David Carr. Long, days before Saturday&rsquo;s NFL draft, signed a contract with the Dolphins, who has the first pick. The Sun picked their worst list by team, each getting credit for one stinker, and Long would have to reek big time to surpass wide receiver Yatil Green, Miami&rsquo;s first-round pick (and 15th overall) in 1997. Green was hurt the first two years of his career and caught 18 passes for 234 yards his third year. After that he was gone. Long's only competition at offensive tackle is Philadelphia&rsquo;s Kevin Allen (1985) who started just four games for the Eagles and eventually wound up in prison for sexual assault. Carr, a Stockdale High product, has lots of company at the QB position, most of whom couldn&rsquo;t hold his jock, but given Houston&rsquo;s short history in the NFL, Carr gets the nod. He is joined by Tommy Maddox, Pittsburgh 1992; Andre Ware, Detroit 1990; Art Schlichter, Indianapolis, 1982; Todd Marinovich, Oakland, 1991; Ryan Leaf, San Diego, 1998; and Heath Shuler, Washington, 1994. &nbsp; The Miami Dolphins are betting $57.55 million ($30 million guaranteed because that&rsquo;s the only dollar amount that matters anymore) that Jake Long, a tackle from Michigan, won&rsquo;t join an elite list of all-time first-round draft stiffs, that at least according to the Baltimore Sun, includes David Carr.

I questioned putting Jeremy Stevens on the top of the refuse pile in Seattle given both the Boz's and Rick Mirer's performances as pros. Who will ever forget Bo Jackson running through Bosworth on national television? Mirer was gonna be Joe Montana until he played the game like Hannah Montana for his career. But Stevens disappearances, meltdowns and drops on the field for big games and small games ultimately do take the nod. David Carr is in illustrious company as an elite stiff. Most of the guys mentioned never got near the sacks of money Carr stumbled, bumbled and grumbled his way into. </p> http://people.bakersfield.com/home/Blog/zeropointzero/25459/#c_229288 http://people.bakersfield.com/home/Blog/zeropointzero/25459/#c_229288 <p>Bill Ordine did a great job on his list.
