    This is really a sad situation. Ryan Leaf was not only the biggest bust (arguably) in NFL history, he's doing his dead level best to be a big bust in life too. Of course, you could tell it early on. When Peyton Manning was asked what he planned to do with his signing bonus, he said he planned to earn it. When Ryan Leaf was asked the same question, he said "I'm going to Vegas, baby!".

    Yep. Ryan Leaf and Jarmarcus Russell two biggest QB busts and NFL busts of all time.

    Both extremely predictable too, in my opinion.

    Leaf was arrested again today on a burglary charge over the weekend after the first arrest. He is already on probation so this means jail time for sure. I won't make fun of the situation though since I have seen how far down addiction can lead people. Hope the dude gets help.
