Is that your argument? One looong run-on sentence. I thought this site was about debating and not just listing players and using that to get votes. Oh well, i'll get slaughtered but here goes my attempt...
Your list also consist of injured players...LJ, Alexander(playing injured and banged up all season), and Heap.
Some of the players on my list were obviously effected by injury. If you were to draft a player in the higher rounds and they do ABSOLUTELY nothing for your fantasy team, they are considered bust, injured or not.
Other players were chosen based on potential and last years numbers. Example, Smith & Leinart had a year of experience under their belts & additions to their offense during the off season. They were expected to improve on last years numbers but prove to be bust in fantasy and reality. The defenses that I have chosen were some of the top defenses last year. All 3 defense have 20 less sacks from last year. All teams have giving up more yards and points per game, a large decline from last years dominate defense.

last year none of those defensees were dominant, maybe miami for a couple of games and maybe a lil carolind, bbut they werent domiant, the bears were monsters last year before tommie harris got hurt, they allowed like 10 points a gamae and there defense single-handily beat teams such as the cardinals in that monday nighter, the ravens were also dominant and last i check made celo lemon look decent.
shaun has played at least half of the season and ok my bad for heap, but harrison and walker have been injuried most of the season and it hasnt been fair. alex smith didnt have big potenial, lineart did, but not smith. the biggest bust has to be marc bulger, with all the things going for him, an improved defense, steve jackson, 3 wideout set with holt,bruce, bennett, and boom offensive line, which lead to int's and stastically his worst season ever.

you guys should go non-injury related... of course a guy who isnt on the field is a bust

I admire you for trying to challenge yourself... But most of the people you listed werent really even expected to have big seasons. Smith wasnt even drafted in our league, and Lienart was taken in like the last round. Nothing much was expected out of Green or Clayton either.
Ill wait to vote though until some arguments are thrown out.

The rules were not stated in his argument or topic BigGUW. But if that were the case, how can I argue against his list?

There were quite a few you couldve argued agaisnt. I think Young and Rivers are weak picks for qb... And i think Benson is another weak pick. You couldve argued all of his wrs too.

Took me forever to put together that list packfan. His list is too OBVIOUS. So I figured it'll be more interesting for me to switch it up and try to argue it lol

I'm not penalizing you, and I also have not voted yet, I'm just saying... is Ronnie Brown technically a bust? While he was in he was a top 3 fantasy guy and most likely 2 in ppr leagues, but he'll end up way down the board.

Like I said packfan, I would rahter keep it interesting lol. Don't see a point in arguing between 1 or 2 players. Lets see how his next argument goes.

Young Rivers Bush are bust and whoever picked Benson in their fantasy team must be higher then a kite, unless they didnt see the same super bowl as me. But I want to wait also for some argument because as packfan4 says u challenged urself to make different picks so I just want to c u justify them
