I'd say Jeremy Stephens comes in 2nd. Does anyone remembers any other bad 1st round picks by the Steelers?

Jeremy Stephens was the worst pick ever, hands down. He couldn't even get into football shape, let alone perform on the field.

The only reason I put Jeremy Stephens at #2 is because Huey Richardson couldn't even get on the field. At least Stephens played some before he was cut.

Nothing could top the Brian BozzWorthless seattle pick. Held out most of the year and got his ass kicked all over the field.

Huey Richardson couldn't even get on the field. So Steelers got zero payback from him. That beats the Bozz in my opinion.
