One of Our Biggest Problems Sunday


Delhommey

Recommended Posts

2008 2nd Round + 2008 4th Round + 2009 1st Round Picks = Jeff Otah (INACTIVE)

2009 2nd rounder = Sherrod Martin (OUT 2nd Half)

2010 1st rounder = Mike Goodson (INACTIVE) and Everette Brown (CUT)

2010 2nd rounder = Jimmy Clausen (INACTIVE)

Not a single pick used from the first two rounds from 2009 or 2010 draft was on the field in the second half.

From all the 1st or 2nd round draft picks from the past 4 drafts only one player started and played the entire game: last year's first overall, Cam Newton. Only 4 saw the field at all.

Talk about Free Agency all you'd like, our drafting has become miserable.

    • this is true.  But NFL Ss and defenses are actively taking that away and playing to take them away vs most teams.  The problem thus far in BY's career......is they are cheating and not respecting the deep game which makes the smaller/mid range game harder to pull off.  and Dallas is an anomaly game.  using those random games as well, look at this......doesn't really change the discussion/issues in Carolina.  Bryce Young took the shots this week because they were not just NFL open but college open.    Wide open dudes downfield that really were coverage busts/issues. 
    • I will simply counter all that with: you should always strive, at every turn, to avoid indoctrinating young players into a culture of not playing to win the game.  Come man, that is an egghead academic approach that ignores the human element. it looks good on paper. Maybe.  In the voice of the great  Herm Edwards: Hello! You play to win the game.  I completely understand the need but that is not the way….
