For the life of me, I'm trying to figure out why Rocky just got in toward the end of the season.
So I go back to the draft of '06, Rocky's class, same position, and looked at all the linebackers drafted ahead of him and the one drafted directly behind him.
All of those
kats had major impacts or started on their teams. The kid drafted behind Rocky, Thomas Howard, had a killer season for the Raiders. He had like 110 tackles.
So, I say to myself..."self, Rocky was just as good as these guys coming out of college and got drafted ahead of one guy who had a break out season. Did his skills suddenly diminish when he got to the Pros?"
I can't tell you what 'self' said back!
