The great teams help their young players get better, our coaches need to take average NFL players and make them good, good NFL players and make them great. The more of that they do, the better the team becomes. Boyd is a recent example, he wad not good early, he was average, but look at him now.
I get that - maybe - the team sees him as someone who is still developing (although I sincerely doubt he improves much with 4 seasons already under his belt. If that's the case, we may as well bring back Ogbuehi), but you don't pay a player for potential he hasn't shown on a field, especially when no other teams are competing for that mythical potential.
I think people are just trying to rationalize a bad contract. Or make peace with it.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
