    This all may be true, but multiple GMs thought he was worth the risk in the 1st round. Every draft pick is a risk and this one just didn't work out...at least not yet. It might not ever work out.

    4 teams they played out of 12 had a record above .500 at the lowest level of division 1 football. Jeez I wonder why he can’t catch up to the NFL game speed.

    What's "BULLSHIT" is putting words in someone else's mouth. The original claim is here, verbatim and complete: "We took the dude based on a pro day. It was such a stupid reach."

    If you're going to claim someone else can't comprehend what they read you should have gotten it all correct in the first place. You failed.

    He didn't say "strictly" or "only," that's your characterization, and you're the one who jumped through hoops to get to your hypothetical quote. Deal with all the hypotheticals you want, but don't expect others to.

    It is also not in any way "A LYING MEDIA NARRATIVE," it is a reporting and analysis of that which happened. If you take issue with something in the article I linked, feel free to point out those things that are untrue, much less lies.

    My opinion, as stated earlier remains "The proof is in the pudding - the guy has never consistently demonstrated an ability to read the field in a timely manner."

    Exactly. It's the #1 reason why I was against drafting him...

    Didn’t Flacco play in D2? Pretty sure the University of Delaware was D2 back then anyway.

    Sadly Wilson’s no Flacco.
