Coaches lambasted to as why he is not on the field being a first round draft pick...remember hearing people saying the needs to be on the field...tired of the coaches taking 1st round picks and not playing them because of the veterans....taking too long to develop these young players
CedO....injured in college...got a bit of playing time year 1
Year 2...Inserted at RT from day one....
Now the coaches started him too early...he was not ready because of this injury....he needed to learn behind the veterans before he got the job.....they should have pulled him because he stunk it up....
SO, which is it? Do you start a 1st round pick and give him a chance like they did with Ced? Or do you bring them along slowly and let them learn the game like DreK?
Obviously in this scenario DreK has benefited.
How about we draft somone worthy of a first round pick n that will contribute the first year without sucking so much ass. Leon hall, JJoseph, Dunlap, Atkins , hill , green are guys tthat came in and started doing great. It took Dre Kirkpatrick 5 years to be solid. That's a long time.
