TyMo can be in this list also. Major accomplishment for him to make a major position switch in a short time and succeed!!!
I am going to twist the wording a bit and call it "the player who played way beyond my expectations" and say Jacob Schum.
I thought when TT made this move at the beginning of the season he was absolutely crazy. I am soooo glad I was the crazy one!
Schum has been someone we have needed for a few years now. Sure, like all punters, he has an occasional miss, but for the most part the guy has been clutch and we are actually seeing a punter who can help shift the field position, something Masthay was terrible at. The added bonus, I have not heard one complaint about his ability to hold for Mason.
Bahktiari.
He's taken a lot of heat from fans, especially when he signed the new contract.
He has proved the contract to be completely justified.
I agree 100%. One of the top five or so pass blocking LT's in the NFL this season.
Go back and look at the thread from when Bahk got his contract and the comments about how "ridiculous" it was for TT to "overpay" for a below average LT. Hilarious! Now they all love him!
I know I never called him below average, and I always placed the disclaimer that knowing he was injured and needed off season surgery, that he could indeed improve and earn a good contract. He has. But now we have Shields, Matthews, Peppers, Cobb that haven't been. Cobb had couple bright spots, took some big shots and made some big conversions for us in limited spots this year, but overall, he's not what he needs to be.I agree 100%. One of the top five or so pass blocking LT's in the NFL this season.

That is the closest I have ever seen you come to an apology and admitting you erred in your analysis.It seemed Thompson overpaid at the time he signed Bakhtiari to an extension. In hindsight that has been proven to be incorrect.
