WHY IS THIS SHIT SO FUCKING HARD TO UNDERSTAND!?!?!?!?

There are differing levels of projects. Obviously everyone has to adjust but some more than others.

It's not a hard concept to grasp. People use the "everyone is a project" defense when they know the player picked is a BIG project but want to make themselves feel better.

You can't tell me that Colin K and Luck would have been the same coming into the league.

You can't tell me AJ Green and AE are the same "project" coming into the league.

Of course you have different levels of "projects" that's why you draft some players in the 1st round and other players in the 7th rd.

The draft is a risk and reward dance for every team, if you think there are any guarantees your fooling yourself.

I think we agree they all need time to adjust and essentially are all projects, also that some are more of a project than others.

but this whole expectation of players needing to be pro-bowlers when they start, or even above average, is a bit ridiculous.

if a guy takes a year to adjust, the popular belief seems to be he'll never amount to anything.. and that's complete bullshit.

      The Pro Bowl is Unwatchable

      you could even divide it up by division and conference with a similar seeding to the actual playoffs, culminating in it’s own Super Bowl.

      Regression to the mean causes Tepper to give up on Bryce.  Six wins and we get the number seven draft pick and take Brendan Sorsby Texas Tech QB.

      The pro bowl should be brought back, it should be in Honolulu with proper marketing and eyes on it, it should be the nfl subsidizing a week long vacation for guys with their families-with that the one big change to make is to get rid of the fan voting. Have each send a collection of five or six guys they deemed their best and if the rosters get a little wonky personnel-wise, that’s okay. That’s part of the fun. short of that, the only other thing I could recommend is having a similar set-up-no fan voting, teams selecting their best players, and sending them to compete against the chosen players from 31 other teams in real Olympic level sporting completions to see who comes out on top.   seeing the panthers delegates beat the disgusting saints delegates up for the Gold in the rowing competition or the 4x100 relay would actually feed into the competitive nature of fans and give them something to root for. you could even have under armour sell the logo cladded up team gear that the pros wear in these games for money, this stuff basically writes itself if the nfl wasn’t trying to use this event help sell the idea that no defense and lots of passing is a GOOD THING and you LOVE THIS and THE GAMES SHOULD BE MORE LIKE THIS.
