Hope I am wrong, but it would fit in with the Skins bad luck with drafts of late.

All I'm saying is you can't judge a draft class off their first year. Yeah it's a bad start, but start talking about a bust if he still can't play in 2 years. Achilles are hard to come back from, but not impossible. Drafting for needs doesn't do shit for anyone, because when your time comes around you are limiting your choices for need. Draft is a crapshoot anyways, you might as well pick the player you think is best, whether it's a need or not. Remember the 2013 draft? Picking Jordan Reed? Remember everyone criticizing the pick because we had Fred Davis and he was considered a good player at the time? Look how that turned out.
