[QUOTE="OldSchool101, post: 833616, member: 10086"] Of course players fail, they’re humans that’s a given. But a “bunch of excuses” come with multiple negative connotations. I would be willing to bet we didn’t just “happen” upon Rashan Gary. As a GM and draft team you either believe in a player or you don’t. As fans, we can’t accurately guarantee a players demise before it happens any more than we can project their success. But in the meantime we’re left with the reality he’s our pick and our GM sais he’s worth a #12. We can choose to beat ourselves up all we want but all that accomplishes is being disappointed ahead of time. Im in the camp of choosing to be disappointed once he fails, not before he ever sees his first practice. The only difference is you’ll either be disappointed until you’re wrong... or you’ll be disappointed longer than I was because you started practicing disappointment earlier if he flops. I hope neither of us experiences the latter. [/QUOTE]
