Top Draft Busts of the Modern Era
Curtis Enis
RB, No. 5 overall, Chicago Bears, 1998
The Penn State running-back curse strikes again (see Thomas, Carter, etc.). Not only did this former Nittany Lion fail to produce, the Bears had the bad luck of picking Enis ahead of several future stars. Chicago looked seriously at Randy Moss, but was scared off by his off-the-field issues. Enis spent three years in Chicago and averaged just 3.3 yards per carry, never reaching 500 yards rushing in a season.
