Definitely true, a lot of these dudes fail due to bad coaching or just wrong fits within the system.

Geno has an uphill battle, they need to be patient with him. He was coming from a team loaded on offense.

WVU wasn't loaded. He had one WR who while elite with the ball in his hands, ran solid routes at the college level, is undersized, doesn't make a play on the ball, and is small.

He had another WR who was a very good college route runner with good athlete ability but was short but he makes plays on the ball and is a very smart college WR.

Two weapons. RG3 had like 3 legit passing weapons in Gordon, Williams, and Wright. He also had a top college RB in Ganaway and NFL level OL players yet his team was loaded. :mindblown:

Sometimes I am not sure you guys are serious. His OL was ass. His top two WR's while great at the college level wasn't even great WR prospects. Austin profile is a playmaker but he is not as good as Harvin and he is not even a good route runner at the college level. Most of his damage was from bubble screen, 5 yard slants, motion passes, and running out of the backfield. Outside of Austin in the backfield, his running backs sucked. The best one was Andrew Buie who is an average college RB at his best. Geno made that offense.

When it comes to his draft spot. That's on Geno. Choosing a terrible agency who didn't do their job and guess who's fault is that. Yours. You hired them. They sucked which made you suck in terms of preparations. Cost you from 21-19 mill guaranteed to 5 mil guaranteed. 15 million dollar swing and you live in expensive New York. Damn son.

Well, you are entitled to your opinion, but I respectfully disagree. Harvin and Austin are the same type of player, except Harvin stays injured and has character issues. Austin can stretch the D and as highlight film has shown, you can't hit what you can't catch. As soon as you try to take away Austin, Bailey gets his. A very dangerous dual threat. The reality is that VW with those two receivers were first in scoring and all-purpose yards every season. That's why I'm glad St. Louis drafted both of them because the WR core is TRASH and their OL is semi-TRASH, but they have made moves this off-season to fix these problems. Sam Bradford gets the blame for their lack of success. When Bradford has competent receivers, he is deadly.

We shall see though.

Harvin best skill in the NFL is his return skills and his playmaking with the ball in his hands. I see those similarities but I also see worse route running at the same stage from Austin. HaI see a much stronger player in Harvin. You really think Austin is going to make it healthy? Harvin played in the SEC and then the NFL. Austin was in the Big East than the big 12. Not known for physicality especially without Nebraska anymore. I liked Harvin out of college more and he didn't set the world on fire as a rook either.

Bailey is nice. I like him. He reminds me of Dyson who played for the Titans. While that's great in college especially with Smith at QB, in the NFL, that's a role player. I wish both well. Austin is more of a gadget to me with great return skills. Fun player to watch.

I agree about STL. Trash WR's and OL. I love Bradford. Undervalued.

Well, hopefully, Fisher can correct that. The NFC west is gonna be brutal this this. I actually expect there to be a lot of injuries because it's so loaded. If Sam doesn't lead them to the playoffs, they'll be calling for his head though. A lot of the fans are out of patience. I wouldn't mind seeing him in Dallas.
