On a scale of 1 to 10, with 10 being the worst, how big a bust was this guy in the NFL?
I say 9.

He was slow, but not a bust. Just throw him the damn ball ;D

A bust? Why do you say that?
I have never been a Me-Shawn fan, but here are some numbers:
- Pro Bowl 3 times
- 814 catches for 10,571 yards and 64 TDs
- 15th all time in receptions
- 23rd all time in yards
- 44th in TDs

I agree. A level "9" bust would be a guy like Leaf. With the numbers key has, you cannot really label him a bust at all.
He was taken number one overall so maybe people expected him to be superman or something.... Fact is he was productive and had a good career.
-
Although the numbers are solid, it's not like he's accomplished anything that no one else could've.
I based my opinion on the hype (much of it from him) vs delivery.
He was a journeyman and never close to a difference maker or franchise player.
-
Bust is entirely inappropriate. A good player just not nearly what he thought & said he was.
Nice replacement for Michael Irvin; a good analyst I think. They said it was embarassing and a little bizarre on draft day when he covered his own team's selection of a WR probably intended to replace him. ;)
-
He had the 3rd most receptions ever through the first 11 yrs of a career, Only Harrision and Rice had more in their first 11yrs.
Hope this helps.

Proves that numbers can be misleading. He was a factor but only a borderline impact player IMO.

I do believe he has won a Super Bowl and led his team in receiving that game ;)
Tampa Bay No. Yds. LG TD
K.Johnson 6 69 18 0

Yup; those solid numbers are classic Johnson.

He wasn't the biggest super star but he had a solid career, he averaged over 70 catches a year. Here is his play off stats

Anyone think he has a shot at the Hall of Fame?
I say he's below fringe status and don't think he'll be inducted. And I don't think it's a stretch to say that.

Not anytime soon. There are a number of players more deserving, like Andre Reed and Art Monk.

He had a good career (not great) considering.....as for his character....that's another story.

I think he has a chance....... But not a good one :-\

Right on bro!
But don't get pumpster on here to talk about Art Monk. He apparently doesn't think Monk's Hall-worthy. I do, bigtime!
-
Some notables from the 1996 draft, where Me-Shawn went no. 1 overall:
6. Lawrence Phillips = bust
8. Tim Biakabutuka = bust
9. Rickey Dudley = bust
19. Marvin Harrison = HOF
26. Ray Lewis = stud

It's Art Monk's groupies who keep bringing up the irrelevant LOL

I agree. Long overdue.

Yeah. :) I think Ray Lewis gets in.

Awsome class of wr's in that draft.
Marvin Harrison
Terry Glenn
Eric Moulds
Terrell Owens
Joe Horn
Keyshawn
Muhsin Muhammad
-
Each of those other WRs you named has been a much bigger difference maker for his teams. I guess it could be argued that Moulds never reached his potential, but the bar was a lot lower for him.
If he's not even a top 5 player at his position out of his draft class, then there's no way he gets into the Hall.
It's the Hall of FAME, not the Hall of Solid.
-
He was a possesion reciever at best. Considering he was the # 1 overall pick, he was a fucking bust.
And he mocked Sterling Sharpe after Tampa's superbowl win, which showed he had no fucking class at all.
-
he was a good player but for being drafted number one overall which receivers never are, he was a bust
marvin harrison and TO were drafted after him (TO in the later rounds) and they are 10 times the gamebreaker keyshawn is
E
-
Exactly.
And besides, how good could he really be if he was never drafted before the 10th round of any fantasy football league?
