... while that is true ... it is also true that 22 other team passed on the "once in a decade" player that you are so high on ... let me ask you a ? ... why is that? ... why did nobody pick him before the steelers? ...
... while he is a "once in a decade" to you ... obviously 23 teams felt there were better selections above him otherwise he'd have been chosen before pitt ...

I hope Coples works out, I really do. Let me ask all the people supporting the pick what their expectations are for Wilk and Coples. Are people expecting 10 sack seasons?
|
... my answer is no ...
... what i am expecting is for both of them to hold the point of attack ... as wilk did last season in the 3-4 ... i'm expecting both of them to open up holes to let pace and thomas get some improved sack #'s ... as well as harris and scott to get some improved tackle totals ...
... for those plays in the 4-3 with both devito and pouha manning the middle i will increase the sack numbers i expect to see from both of the youngsters ... however unless i see more 4-3 on the field than 3-4 though i am not going to hold those players accountable to numbers that may not be relevant to the roles they will be playing in our defense ...
