Piano Man getting snarky

I would love nothing more to have franchise tackles on both edges.  But unless you are going to “weird science” one into creation, where do we get one?

The only point I agree with with is that Jonah fell off late in the season,  it was predictable.  Often times college players talk of hitting a wall when the season goes 16/17 games long. It’s pretty common. Jonah had played in just 10 games in two years.  He’ll learn.

Minkah Fitzpatrick, Marcus Lattimore???  I at first thought that was sarcasm but now I know it sailed a thousand miles over your head. My list  by wasn’t about the history of pick 11’s but of all OL picked 1-11 for the last 10 years.  By that criteria, Jonah does not look like a bust or average at all.

No where did I call him a bust.

But to act like he is a franchise LT is a bigger mistake then calling him a bust. 

I'm going to let you in on a little secret about Brandon Thorn, Lance Zierlen, Mel Kiper, and all the cats that are like them. This information is from my days of doing radio and meeting actual NFL front office executives, guys who were paid a ton of money to scout players. This informtation is why I laugh at people who say "Well I talked to (insert twitter guy) and he said this guy is the best." 

Ready... Anyone who is actual good at scouting NFL talent and has a real eye for it, is being paid a ton of money to do it for an NFL franchise or NFL network or affiliated NFL sources. People who are really good at it, aren't giving away their opinion for free on the internet, via youtube, twitter, etc. People who are skilled don't need to hype themselves on the net and don't give away their knowledge for free. Again, this is from actual NFL employees. "The people out there on the net trying to break down plays and players throw out so many opinions that there are right often enough that people forget how often they are wrong. That's why they have a day job and an opinion versus doing it for a living."

Stop putting your blind faith in twitter guy.
