Drew Sample is a Bum

2.) It's fair to hold him to a higher standard.  It's not fair to to say he's terrible while talking up other guys that aren't playing as well.

1.) He's got a full year under his belt in the system. (OTA's, minicamp, training camp, a full year's worth of film and study).  That coupled with dozens and dozens of extra practices in '19, and 9 live games of experience, puts greatly ahead of the curve when compared to those rookies.

2.) But you won't find me "talking up" any of those guys on your list.  Unlike some people on here, I'm not ready to pencil in Wilson or Davis-Gaither as anything other than unknowns.  In fact, I've ripped Davis-Gaither quite a bit, and have described him as looking slow as shit.  I've described Wilson as potentially being a decent starter, but having to wait and see.
