You're talking about his draft position being determinative of expectations. If no body else worth a damn was in his draft class then of course his draft position will be higher. If Bo Jackson, Peyton Manning, John Elway and Charles Woodson are in the same class he will go lower. Where he is drafted has something to do with who else is in the class.

He had a ton of hype from college. Too much. He wasn't an all pro. But he wasn't a bust.

Now you're using hindsight to back up your side. Nobody KNEW those guys would suck and bust so hard. No GM had a fortune teller in their draft room and had the conversation, "Oh man everybody in this draft will turn out to suck, so lets take the guy who will suck the least." How did you, or anybody else, know everybody else wouldn't "be worth a damn". You can't use this argument.

And actually at the time that draft seemed like it was loaded with talent.
