-Bryant Johnson (thankfully that was only a year long contract)
-Rod Green (looked great last year but not this year)
-Walt Harris (I wish they would just put in Tarell Brown opposite Clements)
-Joe Nedney (early this season he had a few misses)

I disagree with the bolded ones.
Daryn Colledge has probably been our best offensive lineman this season. He hasn't been great, but certainly not dissapointing.
Brandon Jackson has been getting a lot of carriers, but he's been good this year. If anything he's a surprise, not dissapointment. He's averaging 5.1 in the limited carries he has and has been a good third down back.
Donald Driver has over 500 hundred yards and has 3 TDs.
Justin Harrell was on the PUP list until 2 weeks ago. Unless you're saying it's dissapointing that he was injured he shouldn't be on that list. I actually like what I saw from him in those two games that he did play, I think he's going to be earning more playing time.

Did you really expect Chad to get a bunch of catches with a back up QB (with an awful O-line) throwing to him?

What are you referring to exactly? the 4 games and worst career passer rating that Palmer participated in? Several of which against some of the league's top defenses (Baltimore, Tennessee, Giants)?
I'm not saying that Chad is playing the best he ever has, but it certainly would be a stretch to say that he is a disappointment. The whole Cincinnati offense has been terrible this year, and we haven't found a running game nor a groove up until 2 weeks ago when we played Jacksonville (and Chad caught 2 TD passes in that game).

Plenty of WR's have decent years with crappy offenses around them, I don't think its fair to compare Chad's situation to Roddy's situation. For one, Roddy was literally the only threat on ATL last year (besides Jerious nerwood, but he didn't play every down).
A lot of what Chad does best requires a QB with a strong arm and the confidence to try it. on the flip side to that, T.J. is an easier target for a QB with less experience and confidence.

For the ravens...well, I expected to see alot more from Antwan Barnes this year, and Chris Chester has been a huge bust and is playing mediocre atm. Willis has been a bit of a disappointment I expected much more from him but he has been injured, I wanna see how he performs healthy now that we now Rice can run the ball full time, as can McClain.

Well, if you consider him not a disappointment, then i'd love to see what makes the cut. Regardless of who is around him, he's been disappointing.....simply put. The whole team has, but he is included in that. Is he not a factor? TJ has got catches. A player of his caliber, and with a mouth like him, he should be producing. He needs a top tier QB to justify his status? That should show the type of player you expect him to be. Throw some other WRs with average/below average QBs in his place, let them produce and get his hype. You can't say, 'what do you expect' because i expect a guy to produce when he is a supposed to be 'top tier' WR, especially one with a mouth like that. Be the playmaker, don't dissappear. At least he's not yapping a lot this season......

Jon Jansen is really the only player I have a problem with. I'm disappointed with Devin Thomas and Malcolm Kelly but they are rookies and they are gonna need time to develop.

Braylon Edwards has cost me fantasy football games, freakin bum.
Broncos, I'd say Selvin Young, I was expecting him to show he's at least capable of being a backup RB in the NFL.
Elvis Dumervil also, he has been pretty awful this year playing with a hand injury.

Well if we're bringing up fantasy disappointments, I'm going to have to say Addai as the biggest, followed by Jackson and both primarily because of injuries but in terms of just sucking Braylon takes the cake. I had both Addai and SJax after the draft, but its Boldin and Rodgers that carry my team now. Colston coming back helped me alot last week.
But in reality I'd have to say Braylon has been the most disappointing player this year for any team.

Yes, pretty sure this isn't fantasy disappointments......but i suppose some level of it translates to the actual field.
Braylon Edwards has been extremely disappointing, no production, next to no big plays, key and numerous drops, he's been a liability basically.....but i guess we could say that his QB has been poor, so he's in the same boat as Chad Johnson (as previously mentioned as an excuse)......

Yeah, but in order to be dissapointing you have to have been expected to be good
