It’s Marvin’s and the other coaches’ responsibilities to effectively coach and use the players that are selected.
And from what we’ve seen, Marvin has intentionally refused to play Ross for “reasons” until Ross was sent to IR. I, for one, am in defense of Tobin over Marvin when it comes to Ross. Just because Ross doesn’t fit Marvin’s philosophy doesn’t make him a bad pick.

My unbiased opinion at the time was that Ross was a bit of a reach. With all the injuries and then the fast 40 yard time...he was kind of a shock pick that high. If we picked 20 it wouldn't have been a huge deal.
