Monroe trade is quietly looking better.....shhhh......

Quote:I think it crazy to judge the trade and Jockle so fast. People were calling Tyron Smith a bust when came in for the firt 2.5 years of his career. And now he's looking like the best tackle in the league right now. I'm not saying Luke will do that but how can you judge either way?

 

This is the same group that loved Reggie Nelson his first year, hated him the next 2 and now complain about our lack of safety play while he is play like a top 6 safety for the Bungles. 
 

Joeckel might improve a lot in the future. Certainly there's room for improvement. But the odds are he'll never be much better than Monroe. We had a LT. We traded him for 4th and 5th round picks. We could have gotten a lot more for the #2 pick in the draft had we just traded it for 2014 picks straight up. It was a bad trade, period.


The group was right. Nelson was good as a rookie, stunk his next two seasons, and then appeared to be much improved in the preseason when Gene Smith traded him for a ham sandwich. I thought it was a bad trade at the time and said so. Most here were glad to see him go based on his previous two seasons.
