My biggest thing is that I hope the best players get a shot. For me, it started with Gibbs 2.0, they had their guys, they drafted guys, and the drafted players had almost no shot. Don't draft a guy if you have no intention of giving them game experience. Most people thought LeRibeus acquitted himself pretty well against Seattle. I'm not advocating for someone to play based on draft status, but was there any reason that Gettis/LeRibeus/Compton shouldn't have gotten some game experience (ESPECIALLY when RG3 was shut down)?

IMO, you'll never know what you get in late round draft picks if you don't play them. Maybe they bust, but maybe you get a diamond in the rough. I mean hell, would we even know Alfred Morris's name if it wasn't for injury?
