My favorites are Roberson and Purifoy. Both left early, neither got drafted and have a combined 40 tackles and one pick in the NFL
Purifoy, completely forgot about him. Never did much w the Gators either.

Purifoy has had a solid CFL career. Really surprised he hasn't gotten a shot at coming back to an NFL team, at such a tough position (in the NFL).

Our DBs for years have had the good fortune of benefiting from above average pass rush leading to hurried throws and turnovers leading them to truly believe they are “DBU”. When the pass rush isnt there or the talent is equal they get toasted in coverage. In the NFL they are garbage outside of a very select few.

VH3 has been on IR 2 of the 3 years he's been in NFL including last year. He had flashes of what he was at UF and watching the games he was never the worst CB. But that's not saying much TB's secondary has been awful since Rhonde Barber retired.

He was pretty much the worst CB on the bucs the last few years. Hed be the talk of the preseason, have one splash play, and give up just about every pass thrown his way. He was very good usually at making the tackle after he gave up the reception.

I can think of 3 off the bat who were massive busts: Elam, Tabor, VH3.
I'm sure it was because of their religion and they just weren't given a proper chance.

One of the best is playing CB and was a WR at UF.

He was here for 6 years and we never thought to try him at corner. The whole Dunbar story pretty much sums up the WM era.

As for VH3, I’ll take him in Philly. Can’t be much worse than what we’ve rolled out much of the year.

Nobody in TB has covered anyone in 10 years.

Awuzie from last year to this year, the drop has been serious. Rather see Lewis move outside than VH3....

Maybe a Euro team . Can’t play ! He was way overrated while he was at UF. Played lazy

He has good hips and is sound fundamentally. Problem is that speed matters in the NFL and he has always struggled with that. I’d try him at safety if I was an NFL team.

Neal when healthy. Poole is probably the best since then and he wasn’t even drafted.
And he was the proverbial whipping boy while here. Everyone hated him and he always seemed to be the guy picked on and giving up the crucial 3rd down. Quite an improvement for him to this point. My money is on terrible coaching and scheming while at UF.
