Alright fellas with the dead zone upon us I thought I'd give us something to chew on.Who is the one player you had the highest expectations for despite how they were acquired? Who did you always think would breakout and become a star player but in the end you were left dissapointed?

 

For me its Jarret Dillard I thought this guy would be a absolute steal. He set dozens of records while playing WR at Rice. But in the end he never panned out. Who's your guy?

I was thinking we had just picked up Freeney-Mathis v2.0 with the addition of Harvey-Groves.  Oops.

Mine was Derrick Harvey. I truly believed we were 1 player away. Then we drafted Groves in the second round and I thought for sure we were going to the Super Bowl.


So for me it was Harvey.

I'm torn between these two. For the Harvery-Groves draft, I felt like the team had finally added speed to the Defensive Line. Finally here were not one, but two guys who could flat out run and get to the QB. How did both of those guys turn out to be busts?!?!?! I mean, I get one but both?!?!

 

And then Gabbert came along. Here was a guy with all of the athletic talent in the world but he would need time, training and experience to get it all out. I'm a patient guy so I was prepared to wait. At least Bortles came about shortly after so there wasn't as much time to dwell on it.

I'm trying to make myself more informed and less opinionated.

Stop saying whatever stupid thing you're talking about and pay attention to all the interesting things I have to say!

Blackmon was a little different. He was was top 10 WR when he stepped on the field. The problem was getting him on the field

Leftwich, I really thought he was going to be this giant gun slinger. But we should have just rode Brunell longer.

I was skeptical of Blackmon during his draft process and when he was with us, when you watch him in interviews you could just tell something was up. That being said:

1. Mike Sims-Walker (everyone talked him up)

2. Larry Hart

3. Derrick Harvey

Hey, a lot of us fell into that trap.  He really looked great in practice!  Tongue

I'm condescending. That means I talk down to you.
