Relax. It's just the truth. I'm referring to what we're getting from this class this year only. It really looks like very little. Sure. We'll get snaps out of King and Williams but how much impact will those have? Neither looks like any type of game changer. Just the truth. Maybe, down the road but not this season which is disappointing.
As for NE, all they did is give up 8 spots in the draft for Ealy. Traded a 2nd for a 3rd that was 8 picks later. This is a lot different than making it sound like they gave up a 2nd rounder.
It's just disappointing year after year getting no first year impact from the draft. I watched Reuben Foster tear it up for SF last night. That guy can play. We could've really used him but we're stuck with Kevin King who was drafted because Randall and Rollins suck and Hayward was let go. A affects B and B affects C.

Don't be a little equivocation bitch evader. FOCUS ON MY ARGUMENT or don't respond; these are you're 2 moral choices.
Rookies can only be difference makers if they play. Strong teams typically draft late and dont have alot of weak positions. Dix played as a rookie ONLY because we didn't have 2 strong safeties. If Collins and Burnett were the safeties and stayed healthy, how much would Dix contributed?
Drafting late Ted cant pick whomever he wants. He must take the best player that other 30sih teams have left behind. If the stars align, sometimes that 30ish player fits a positional need; like Dix. And then Dix must still learn the schemes well enough to be able to play.
You have so much hate clouding your judgment to preserve your agenda you've even refuted one of your core expressed beliefs [that speed is important]. Speed is the single thing that prevents ALL rookies from "making a difference". If a guy with 4.39 speed, has to pause before acting or takes a false step because he has to think about his role in the scheme instead of simply reacting turns him into a 4.6-5.0 speed guy.
You dare to say "truth?" Rookies on good teams "making a difference" is the stark exception and so far from being a rule, it ridiculous.
YOU NEED PERSPECTIVE. Is a RB who runs the ball 300 times for 30 yards any good? He's a HOFer if all other RBs average negative yards. Likewise if he runs for 2000 yards on 300 carries ; he sucks if all other RBs get 4000 yards.
