Just what you're looking for in a 3rd overall pick.

How many times do people have to see Fouler's story before they understand that drafting is all about getting great players regardless of the position, not about trying to fill roster slots.

Well, wait a minute.

Fowler's only real strike has been getting hurt.

He got into the road rage incident that led to his one game suspension.  It happens.  No big deal to me.

In 2016, his first action, he had a lot of penalties and did not make too much impact.

But last year, under coaches that hold players responsible, two full seasons removed from his ACL, he had a very good year.

Even if you view Fowler as a complete bust (and that would be a stretch given his performance last year, including the two sacks in the AFC championship) Caldwell has proven he knows how to draft.
