That, and people being upset that Oliver isn't getting as much action as they think he should be. Um, he's a rookie and coming off and injury that is easily aggravated; so #1 he's not had a lot of time to develop due to lack of playing and #2 they're probably not wanting to run him into the ground or try to play lights out and aggravate that injury. 

Rookies rarely do anything of consequence their first season or two. Nothing dramatic anyway. Taven Bryan was being crucified for not doing much and not living up to his draft position last season and it drove me nuts. The transition from college to pro is drastic and these guys have no say in which round they're drafted so busting their balls is just plain stupid. 

We got super lucky with GM15 being able to come in and keep this team from being the basement dwellers of the league this season. Is hasn"t been pretty but for a sixth round pick and a rookie he has done very well.
