[QUOTE="Pokerbrat2000, post: 610635, member: 7261"] There have been so many players like Brad Jones in and out of the NFL; young, potential, a hopeful rise to the top. Some do, some don't. It's no different then drafting young talent. Set aside injuries, until a player has enough years under his NFL Belt to really prove himself (on and off the field), you have a limited body of work to look at and hope that the stats and predictions work in your favor. I think the 2nd contract (after rookie contract expires) has to be one of the most difficult ones for a GM. In Jones case, TT saw major potential (maybe on the practice field?) that many of us didn't. For as many times as TT has failed at predicting talent, you have to look at his successes and by the Packers record during TT's tenure, he seems to be much better then most at it. [/QUOTE]
