The reluctance of some to admit he is a massive bust at #4 overall is crazy. Admitting he was a bad pick doesn't make his production worse. He's going to stink whether they admit it or not.

Seems like the vast majority of fans indeed believe he was overdrafted, so not sure what you mean there. Of course "bust" is an insanely inaccurate term.

Saying "he's going to stink" doesn't make much sense here either.
 Players who "stink" don't average 4 YPC behind a bad 2019 line, while racking up 1150 yards and another 520 through the air. 

The dude lacks vision and wiggle but has proven to be productive despite those lacking in those areas. 
I didn't want him at 4, I still am not much of a fan, but I appreciate what he did this season and I don't think he "stinks."  He's just not the type of RB I'd prefer dominating touches for my team. 

You're not willing to see him for what he is after painting yourself into a corner by comparing him to a lesser football player.
