There in lies the rub...our rookies likely don't get coached up much.

Maybe guys like Kirkpatrick and Dennard are examples of guys getting coached up...but I'd argue that they should have been usable earlier in their careers if they were coached properly.

A first rounder shouldn't need as much coaching as a fourth rounder (in theory).
Lawson fell to the fourth because he struggled against the run, was a bit of a tweener (especially for a 4-3), and had an injury history. If there was one thing that he didn't really need coached, it was rushing the passer from the edge.
