they sound like a bunch of bitter douchebags. I wouldn't be upset if we picked him at all

I dont want Len, but wow those Terrapin fans are harsh. I've come to the conclusion that any sports website with "24/7" in it is littered with major tools.

I like reading the thoughts of the fans that have seen them play every game, some like his potential but some are very negative.
I'm not as against taking him as I was earlier this year. I like his size and potential offensive game, but some of those "soft" comments worry me. I also think that foot injury could turn into a big problem for a center to have this early.

I'm not too familiar with his foot injury and how it will affect him going forward. if it is a possible chronic condition then of course I don't want him but if it's just a run of the mill injury then I would be happy with the pick

you must not have been on the tiger rant during Jarret Lee's freshman year or Jordan Jefferson's junior and senior years.

sometimes they are insightful but then fans are more harsh than outside observers to their players in a lot of cases. just read the rant during games we trash our players like no other

I dont go on Tiger Rant. I cant put up with those idiots. Saints Talk either, which sucks because the Saints are by far my favorite team in any sport.

I can't tolerate Saints Talk nor Tiger Rant.
Pelican Talk is pretty much the only message board I read.

but you can't ignore the opinions of fans who watch him play every game.
yeah, they may be idiots, but if they laugh at the possibility of him being a lottery pick, that should be a red flag.

if people would have been considered Jordan Jefferson as a top 10 pick, we would have thought that was ridiculous as well.

I may be wrong but I don't remember our fan base trashing him that bad.

i'm not saying len won't be a bust i'm just saying fans are not always the best source of info in general. there are knowledgeable ones out there though

The fanbase only really trashed Tyson Jackson for bonehead personal fouls.... that I can recall.

but I don't think any of us saw in him as a top 20 pick... much less a top 3 pick.

I know full well that message board fans are no the most reliable source of player scouting, but if Len's own fanbase is that adamantly against him, i'd say that's a red flag.
