Please list the talent evaluator that has hit on every pick. The only thing these picks represent is potential. There is never any definitive right or wrong picks a day after the draft.

Name your source or edit your post. This is libelous if, as i suspect that statement is a pure fabrication

It's never too early to bash a player who is yet to suit up and get on the field.

They certainly reached, but there is no evidence to suggest it was a bad selection.

maybe belichick felt he was badly coached at Illinois

being a team player is good, but its not that good when you dont have the abilities to help to team. i just hope EVERYONE is wrong about this guy and BB is not.

Do I hope he succeeds? Yes. Do I think he will? No. Rarely do invisible college players become noteworthy NFL players. Brady was well known at Michigan, politics hurt his draft stock with Henson.

I'm calling BS on this. Brady was about as sexy as a 70's leisure suit. Way to claim that after all his success

I'm not saying TW is gonna lite the would on fire, but he fits the mold. BB has a track record of making these hybrid players work out. Recently, he has had a hardon for safety/corner hybrids. Let's wait on this one and see what develops.

Retard troll post of the year................ congrats on that.

Recently? Eugene Wilson, Asante Samuel, and Brandon Meriweather were all hybrids. Plus Artrell Hawkins.
