Overall, Luvnit is trying to make it known that a lot of rookies don't contribute (much) immediately, and a decent number don't even make rosters.
By trying to expose these facts, he's trying to help temper expectations that some people are setting for these rookies.
Temper expectations? We want some of our 1st round picks to contribute in year one, in area the teams has needs for contribution.
No one ever said all draft picks should be contributors or stars. It is pointless to even argue against it, because it's such an illogical and fake sentiment.
It would be like me going to the Reds board and chastising fans for wanting 5 20 games winners to comprise the rotation - Just to 'set expecations'
