I'm afraid J. Ireland was mistakenly overwhelmed with Stanback

IGS is running rampid again..... :laugh2:

good to see my acronym put to appropriate use. : )

as for this post - some people are in dire need of attention so they say things like a project player *of which they know is a project player* is a wasted pick to start a 5+ page thread.

nothing breeds an audience like stupidity.

Loving me boys now I don't want to be critical ... but I'm afraid we whiffed with Isaiah Stanback.

Stanback reminds me of Antonio Bryant. Both are the most impressive guys you've ever seen on the field, the definition of "dynamic" ... if you watch them casually on your couch, both seem to be awesome athletes and just be quick in all their movements and kick ***, but ..

But A. Bryant's dynamics, just looking like the best athlete on the field when he would run a pattern ... it was quickness that didn't really translate into anything. Not good functional speed. He was a thick guy, his movements weren't too "linear" down the field ... there was lots of wasted motion. A. Bryant would never be "open" but have DBs blanketing him. (Maybe he had no moves or savvy ...) On the other hand, think the Indy Colts tall, upfield-linear-speed guys (what am I saying? ) and you see guys with no wasted movement just slipping upfield like razors. Scheme and coaching?

I'm afraid that Jeff Ireland fell in love with Stanback, and Ireland saw him as a possible special athlete ... but if he was a fantastic pure speed/athlete/doing anything on special teams, or had any special talent even as a gunner ... or anything worthy of a draft choice, he would be out there nowadays, don't you think .... Yeah I know Stanback ran a 4.3 or 4.4 but ...

Ireland wasn't here when we took Crayton I think ... he was a unlikely body type for a receiver, like Stanback, but Crayton must have been a pure lucky find in the "local" predraft prospects day and contradicts all I'm saying .. did anybody scout SW Okla. or wherever Crayton was from?

Now Jacoby Jones at Houston, 3rd round, may amount to something ...

Seriously... we are four weeks into the season and many around here wonder why Stanback isn't under consideration for ROY...

Could Stanback be a bad pick? sure... and time will tell...

If you are expecting him to start right now, you are devoid of any rhyme or reason...

He is a second day pick... a second day pick. Most second day picks never have a career in the NFL. They are a crap shoot.

Print this response out, lay it under your pillow and let it sink in...

won't matter. he knows he's being stupid, but look - look how mahy people are here to tell him how stupid he is? amazing isn't it?

say something smart and people nod and pass around the wine.

say something stupid and you get a beer chuggers argument that goes on and on and on.

Stanback will be fine. Give him a chance.
