I knew Dede has been banged up...just still surprised after Cole was on the verge of being cut so often it seemed in the past. And the fact that Dede is a 4th round pick, still decently young.

With Minshew as a 6th round pick and our new UDFA Robinson both balling like crazy, sometimes I think where they were picked in the draft isn't always an indicator of how good or bad they are. 

College talent doesn't always translate well to the pros and sometimes the mediocre college guys flourish once they get a handle on the speed of the pro game. There are examples of both. Also, we've had guys who didn't do so well here go to another team where their talents were better utilized. 

The FO thought Calais Campbell was getting long in the tooth and traded him to the Ravens where he made an immediate impact yesterday. That trade still pisses me off.
