What Happened To Ryan Leaf?

Chosen second, behind Manning, in the 1998 NFL draft, the world belonged to Leaf every bit as much as it did Manning. But Manning succeeded and Leaf failed. Manning still is having one of the most prolific careers in NFL history. He’s still at the top of the game. Leaf arguably is the most colossal bust in his sport’s history. And now he’s at the bottom of his world. Some people will think this is a result of Leaf’s bad karma. At Washington State and in the NFL, he treated most people the same way — poorly. He was a jerk to many of his fellow WSU students. He had disdain for the sports writers who covered him, and he wasn’t a particularly good teammate in the NFL/Steve Kelley, Seattle Times. More here .
