2011 - Lets draft Projects

Recommended Posts

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.

    • Question to the posters on this thread because you are knowledgeable--I love watching and pull for the Canes, but I never played so I don't have the understanding I had when I played football then watched it.  Having said that, Do you think we are weak at Center?  I see the team to be pretty strong on the wings, promising defense, and weak at Goalie.  It would be ideal if the Canes had 1 more position to upgrade, not 2.  I don't think you can count on Anderson to play a full season and he is 35.  However, are we solid at Center in your view?
    • Couldn't agree more, Kooch is erratic and Freddy is fragile, maybe save the remaining cap space for a goalie stud at the deadline
    • There is one play that sold me-- it was around 2:38, I think.  It was 4th and 1 and the QB telegraphed and threw the ball out wide to TMac.  He had no blocking (the TE was very late) and four defenders collapsed on TMac behind the LOS. They seemed to know it was coming.  He got hit behind the LOS and battled through several hits to get three yards.  THAT play showed me his fire.
