Folks remember the rookie year and will not forget.
I can easily see a similar phenomenon with Ced. Last year was his rookie year due to injury and he struggled mightily, as many rookie Olinemen do. If he improves to anything less than Pro Bowl caliber; he will be considered the worst LT in the league by many around here. It has already started.
Pretty much. Some make their minds up on these guys within the first 2-3 preseason games, and no matter how much they progress or regress, their opinion doesn't change.
