Looking back at his college stats, it seems pretty obvious that he was only a dominate starter in his 3rd and final season at UCLA.  What was the big hype about him, that caused him to be such a coveted 1st round pick?  He ran just under 4.7 in the 40, while that's good speed for his position, but nothing eye popping.  Did he have some hard to find qualities, or was he just another guy that the draftniks took a liking to and the media ran with the hype, and inflated his value?

His PFF grades were trending upward...


I'm hoping that one of our more informed board members can help me understand what the issues with McKinley are/were in Atlanta.  I know that at least one posted something about attitude and discontent issues with negative social media postings in regard to dissatisfaction with the team.  Usually that stuff is just a symptom of an underlying issue.  Was he the issue?  Was it the coaches?  I can't imagine it being the stigma of not winning a lot of games, because UCLA wasn't exactly Championship caliber while he was in college.

I would imagine that in the locker room of a team who's been as big of a disappointment as Atlanta has, for the past couple of seasons, there is likely more than enough negative energy to cause even talented teams to fall apart.

Volson is meh, but I like him, and he has far exceeded my expectations
