Look where he's at now. My point is, it's impossible to determine how a player's game and athleticism will translate to the NFL, and how he'll be used.

Anyway, I don't necessarily have high expectations for either player. I'm just a fan of theirs and will enjoy seeing what they can do in the NFL, even if not on our team.
I gotcha. I do agree with the difficulty to project a player's success in the NFL. And I didn't mean to bash you or your opinion on any player. I'll try to be more tactful next time.
