Re: Howie Long's son DE Chris Long - Top 5 Pick
I saw a list of past #2 picks for the past 10 years. About 2 were studs, most mediocre and a couple outright busts.
All that for 8M per year? No thanks, I don't like those odds.
That's not true. The odds may not be worth the risk but don't overstate it; while the big money busts are mentioned a lot, there's a lot of big money high picks who are studs. Very slim is way overstating it.
Personally I like Long, I'm just not sure how we would get him the playing time a pick that high would need.
