NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- Corey Davis is not a bust.
JaMarcus Russell was a bust. Justin Blackmon was a bust. Lots of first-rounders have been busts.
Davis hasn’t been what a fifth overall pick should be, and that’s a disappointment.
But we need to expand our language. We simply cannot use the same word for him that we use on guys like Russell and Blackmon, or guys like them who bomb out of the league in short order.
