Here's a good message board blasting back at Clayton. http://www.pewterreport.com/forum/index.php?PHPSESSID=c0a7ef9425ac87878cf8dfcd87024b62&topic=34654.0 Michael basically said in a radio interview that Gruden had no confidence in his players and that everyone was playing for themselves. There was no sense of family with the team. He ended the conversation by saying, you reap what you sow. The guy just got canned today. WTF Michael? You're a draft bust, for God's sake.
Don't post that in the general forum. They'd say, "He's been there for 5 years, so he must be good" or he hasn't had any good QBs or their owner sucks or the coach sucks or (fill in the blank). LSU Busts: - Josh Reed - Michael Clayton - David LaFleur - Wendell Davis - Gary James - Tommy Hodson (I know he was drafted in the 3rd, so maybe huge disappointment) - Harvey Williams - Kenny Mixon - Mark Roman - Devery Henderson (arguable, I know, but if he went to school at USC, no one would want him on the team) Wow... guess I never noticed.

Im going to use the QBs as an excuse and but mainly imo he is a posession wr and his expectations weren't as high as Clayton's
Mark Roman played a few solid years in the league. Never a pro bowler, but far from a bust.

He is only 5'10" so I'd say he is about on par.
