Far from being a runner up, I think Bush at 2 was a good pick.
Ellis at 7 is the clear runner up.
Or maybe just put Sullivan twice.

In the Jason Smith slide...is this a picture of Jahri Evans? Looks to be wearing Saints colors in the picture and looks like his face to me.
ETA: Their runner ups for biggest bust are really ridiculous in a lot of these cases. They have Reggie Bush as being a bust. Sorry, but while he may not have lived up to his #2 overall status (mainly because of the way our offense spreads the ball around and used running back by committee the whole time he was here), we wouldn't have won a Super Bowl without him and he wouldn't have had a 10+ year career. Busts bust. They don't play decade long careers.
Jonathan Sullivan, of course, is the definition of a bust.
Since the Saints would have had two first round picks if they hadn't traded up I vote that J. S. should be both the worst and the runner up.
And whereas his numbers may not have been "great", defenses HAD TO PLAN and ACCOUNT for Him on EVERY PLAY!
Only Saints fans say this. NFL Teams don't do anything special to game plan for players who aren't producing big numbers. They face extremely talented players every single week on every single team. Reggie mostly faced standard defenses.
That said I don't think he deserves to be runner up. We did get a lot of use out of him as a receiving back and his emotional value that he brought at that time can't be understated.
what we gave up for Sullivan and how terrible he was adds up to an impressively bad move.
HOWEVER, maybe it's one of the those butterfly effect things. maybe if we keep those picks and don't draft Sullivan, we'd be a mediocre team instead of truly awful. maybe we don't end up ready to restart with Coach Payton, or Drew, or Reggie, or Colston, etc. maybe there's no SB44 ring, or any other ring.
things that make you go hmmm...
