David Veikune 2nd
0 Stats 10 games
vs
Gerard Warren 1st
116 tackles 16.5 sacks in 4 seasons
Using the logic that won Warren the battle of suck against Brady Quinn then he should run away with this win, but I think people voted based on their least favorite players and in that case there is not a more disliked Brown than Veikune so he's going to win the suck of suck.
Gerard Warren was supposes to be a dominant game changing DLineman with the #3 pick.
Veikune was a #50 pick and I don't think people realize how much higher the bust rate is after round 1 espcially that late in round 2. _________________

This is tough for me.
On one hand you have a high pick used on a fat lazy POS.
On the other you have. A guy that never did anything. _________________

I may have to go with Veikune here.
We made that huge trade with the Jets and had 3 2nd rounders. Hitting on those could have turned the tides for us.
We ended up with Robo, the Glass Man and Veikune.
EPIC FAIL _________________

Using everyones voting logic from the Quinn/Warren thread then Gerard Warren should have won this award.
Using the logic from this thread then Quinn should have won the semi final against Warren.
It seems everyone was just voting for who they disliked more.
Either way I think we can all agree Warren, Quinn and Veikune are easily the worst 3 picks of the new era Browns. _________________

| Veikune, by a long shot. Because of the trade and his suck. |

Why is Warren not running away with this.
The guy was the #3 overall pick! He was lazy, and when he did play he wasn't very good anyway. You ask me if I would trade a bust in the 2nd for a hit in the first, I'll say yes everytime.
When you miss on a 2nd round pick, it sucks. But everyone does it, even the Steelers, Ravens and Patriots miss on late first-2nd round picks.
When you miss on a top 5 guy it sets your franchise back. The only answer should be Warren _________________

My guess...
Warren represents suck as a player
Veikune represents suck as a player, coach, gm, and owner. |

I'd argue passing on 15 pro-bowlers in that round alone to pick a waste of space is as big a representation of our sucktitude. _________________
