Geez we got spoiled by Boselli.

Monroe struggled as a rookie but shined up until the time he was traded. Cam looked better than Monroe did through the same point of their careers. As long as Cam picks up where he left off we'll be fine.

I was ecstatic about the Monroe pick. I had him pegged as the best player in the (albeit weak) draft that year.

I was disappointed. In his first two seasons he wasn't as good as Barnes. Monroe started playing better in his 3rd season (Barnes dropped off badly in his 3rd season) and was the best player on the Jags offense in 2012. He started slowly in 2013 under a new system and was traded to make room for Joeckel.

Robinson as a rookie was clearly better than Monroe's first two seasons. I hope he fully recovers, and if so he should be a long-term solid LT for the Jags.

We have always been in lockstep agreement regarding Monroe and Barnes, and looks like we agree on Robinson, too.

Worst to 1st. Curse Reversed!
