[QUOTE="Mondio, post: 609083, member: 10441"] Probably a third of my posts are about trusting this staff and the GM, so save me your **** about the experts behind a computer. Pretty sure i've never said I know more than they do. Also pretty sure I never called this pick a bust or a bum. I've qualified my statement repeatedly in this thread. I can guess the response, but I'll ask one more time. Watch the video, do you like what you see? I'm fully aware things happen to everybody "at times", but I ask, did you watch the video? all those things you don't want to see happen to your ILB didn't just happen at times, they seemed to happen almost every play. In about 40 plays there were maybe, and I do mean maybe, a handful (that's about 5 for you smartasses out there) that looked a positive play from him. The rest were mostly anything but. So maybe this is more fitting to be written about him "He's a strong tackler (at times) he's instinctive (at times) He's strong against the run (at times)"??? I don't care what his stats say, or how many tackles he had. That is just what's written. Ron Dayne re-wrote and held a few records too , how did that fare for him in the NFL? So for anybody else that hasn't understood what i've said a few times. I know i'm not a scout, I never claimed to be. I know they all know much more than I do, and it doesn't mean they never get it wrong either. I hope they don't just watch one youtube video like I did. I didn't call the guy a bust, I didn't call him a bum. I saw he was picked, I read what the "scouting reports" said. Then I looked for a video of him against good competition and what I saw was a direct contrast to what I had read. if you disagree, maybe point out all the plays where he was swallowed by blockers and tell me why I'm seeing it 'wrong"? or why a QB beats him with contact and in open space and it is not a cause for concern? or maybe line up a video of about 30 plays against good competition where the majority are positive in nature and not negative? Or not. [/QUOTE]
