The 2018 NFL draft begins April 26, and it’s a given that there will be a handful of out-and-out first-round busts. And chances are, some of those busts will be former SEC stars.
The 14 SEC schools certainly have had their share of first-rounders who never panned out. Here’s a look at the worst first-round pick from each of the conference members during the Super Bowl era. (One of our “honorees” was drafted when his school wasn’t in the SEC.)
Alabama
WR Dennis Homan
The particulars: Drafted 20th in 1968 by the Dallas Cowboys
The skinny: He played five NFL seasons and had just 37 total receptions.
