If Chase takes over a year, it's a failed pick.
I am not saying that it will, or that he is, but we can't hold a 5th overall pick to the same initial standards and expectations as a 55th overall pick.
That’s a bit extreme. Of course you want your first rounders (especially top 5) to make an impact immediately, but if Chase has an unimpressive rookie season, but then goes on and starts balling out every year after that I’d hardly say it’s a failed pick. You don’t draft a player (no matter how high) for just one year. And most players don’t hit their ceiling at 21.
