20 NFL Rookies Who Are Already Looking Like Disappointments

This article is terribly written and researched. It's like the author picked 20 random numbers between 1 and 255 and wrote a few sentences about how they've "been terrible overall, okay at times at X but always overmatched in Y".

The Internet is full of terrible articles based on flawed/nonexistent research and stupid premises. This one still manages to stand out among them.

I hope brown starts showing some flashes a lil. Too early to say he's another ron brace.

No. He is quicker, more explosive and more talented than Brace. There is no comparison.

Brown has shown the flashes whereas Brace showed almost zip.

Was Vince turning heads in the early weeks of 04?

I remember being unimpressed with Vince's play as a rookie. Then again he was going from a 4-3 to a 3-4 NT position. Took him some time to be dominant.

Malcom Brown has had a few snaps I'm sure he would like back, particularly against the run but other than that he's looked the part to me. Aside from QB I believe that DT is the second hardest position to adapt to in the pros. College interior OL range from "I could go Pro" to "I'm just here to hit the books, man." It's a HUGE leap for a DT to make and that's not even taking into consideration the various other intracacies that get introduced to the DT position once you make it to the NFL.

Yes, I remember listening to him and it was something as simple as moving back a half a foot. Crazy how little things at this level can have a huge impact.

Found the author....

Agholor was good too. That one pissed me off a lot too. Yeah let's single out a rookie as a disappointment when the whole offense is awful. I mean Murray went from rushing champ to 22 yards. Yeah but the rookie wr is the bust. Idiot
