The truth is every drafted player has holes, even the top pick Garrett. People are only choosing to hear the potential negatives about a player. They listen to guys like Mayock, who will spend 8 minutes talking about how great a prospect is and 2 minutes talking about concerns and they walk away only talking about concerns.

Also using the "we have a history of..." as an excuse to not like a player drafted now because of what has happened before is pessimistic vagina talk. It really makes many people in this fan base look like over dramatic Kardashians.

It's irrational, superstitious logic. It's something that is part of the culture of being a sports fan, but it doesn't make it any less fantasy. Just because historically like 20 years ago or even 2 years ago the Saints busted out on a cb prospect does not mean that the Saints are any more disposed to bust out on a cb prospect in the first round this year.
