But to quote Marvin Lewis " it doesn't matter how you got here, it's what you do when you get here"
I think coaches and GMs at times forget where a player was drafted or if he was a, UDFA.
All they want to do is find the best 53 and roll with it.
I realize yeah some 1st RD picks get more room or margin to develop cause of the financial investment
I've seen 1st RD picks get benched and eventually cut in favor of lower RD picks who simply outplayed them.
The truth is as much as Ross as underachived he's still 5x the WR Erickson is.
Erickson has had 2 years to develop into a threat.
Offenses need TDS in order to give your team a chance to win.
Ross scores TDS Erickson doesn't
With Green back and Boyd and now Higgins plus Tate, I think both Erickson and Ross are expendable.
