Still feel strongly that since this kid is not a football player, he should have been a FA only. So why waste a draft pick on him?
Even Spartan fans will tell you how surprised that he was drafted when far better players weren’t. Just looking at a sheet of paper is only what makes him enticing.
Dude couldn’t cover receivers. He was regularly torched.
Why not use that pick on an injured stud like USC’s Vorhees, a RB, or a developmental LT like Northern Michigan’s Jake Witt or TE like Old Dominion’s Zack Kuntz?
I was very vocal on the Draft thread begging for Kuntz.
Speed was a stretch to pick then. There was no stretch to Kuntz at all. It would be great to have Kuntz in training camp this year. They could have worked out Kuntz every day until he was worn out and sopping wet with sweat. But Belichick often is slow with rookies. So maybe they would have eased Kuntz in gradually until he was ready.
Either way, it would have been nice to have Kuntz.
We could always give Ameer Speed a nickname to make him more interesting. Ameer Twat Speed?
