There are absolutely no guarantees, but some draft classes have more potential than others. In our scenario, some young guys will have to start and learn as they go...nothing new in the NFL.So, tell me, who are some of the "stud" guards you would have come in in the last 2 years? And realize Hutchinson was grossly overpaid and not even a consideration. Who are the players you would have replaced Wahle and Rivera (injured, in decline and overpaid)? Seriously, give me some names.P.S. If you are not a fan of "potential" then clearly you are not a fan of how Brett Favre came to be. He was fat, drunk and stupid...but so full of "potential" that Wolf pulled the trigger on the guy. He was pretty much thrown into the fire and flourished. Never said I preferred that these young guys be forced to start, but that is just the reality we face. Sherman set the table and, yes, TT did not fill the holes in the line last year. But again, who are the guards you would have brought in? I do want names..without them your arguement is nothing but hot air.</blockquote>
