Matt Elam Named Baltimore Ravens Biggest Draft Bust

Matt Elam was drafted in 2013 and he never panned out. When he wasn’t hurt he was bad. There is no doubt that he is a big draft bust. Last year I looked at the five worst draft picks in Ravens history, and I argued that Kyle Boller and Travis Taylor were bigger disappointments for the Baltimore Ravens.

Kyle Boller was taken with the 19th pick in the 2003 NFL Draft. The Ravens got it wrong and it was obvious. The Ravens were set back for years at the quarterback position. Trading for Steve McNair gave Ravens fans some relief at the quarterback position, but Boller kept getting forced on to the field.
