1990 Ty Detmer Brigham Young QB 9th round medicore career
1991 Desmond Howard Michigan WR 1st 4th pick. A bust as a wr, but one of the all time greats as a return man with a super bowl mvp award. Not worth this high of a pick though
1992 Gino Torretta Miami (Fla) QB 7th round major bust,
1993 Charlie Ward Florida State QB Sr. choose to play in the nba, wasn't much nfl interest
1994 Rashaan Salaam Colorado RB 1st round 21st pick, good rookie year, then fell apart. had major fumble-itis
1995 Eddie George Ohio State RB 1st rd 14th. great player
1996 Danny Wuerffel Florida QB 4th rd bust
1997 Charles Woodson Michigan CB 1st round 4th pick. Solid cover man
1998 Ricky Williams Texas RB 1st rd 5th pick. When not on the wacky tabacky or wearing wedding dresses, he could play. Now playing in canada sitting out a 1 yr nfl suspension, will always be known as Mr what could have been.....
1999 Ron Dayne Wisconsin RB 1st rd 11th pick. Never gonna reach the potential some thought he had. Bust at this high of pick
2000 Chris Weinke Florida State QB 4th rd, career clip board holder
2001 Eric Crouch Nebraska QB 3rd pick drafted as a wr instead of QB, never made it anywhere.
2002 Carson Palmer USC QB 1st rd #1 looks to be a great one
2003 Jason White Oklahoma QB never played
Still to early I suppose but both these guys appear to be headed to good careers
2004 Matt Leinart USC QB 1st rd 10th
2005 Reggie Bush USC 1st rd 2
it doesn't appear that winning the heisman means you'll have a good career let alone a high draft spot.
Will Troy become the next Carson Palmer or Danny Wuerffel ?
Where is Vince Young on that 2005 list?
