Maybe we should let Garrett make it through at least one actual NFL practice.

Historically, when huddlers have placed such lofty expectations on players, it rarely actually works out that way. In fact, you may have just cursed the dude before he ever even plays a down. Great job.

Heaven forbid I place such lofty expectations on him such as being better than the elite wide receiver Devin Funchess, whose 473 yards and 5 touchdowns single handedly took us to the Super Bowl!

What have I wrought on poor Garrett?

Oh, please. Lighten up. No one is bashing Funchess.

His highlight reel, like all highlight reels looks good. He's built up a great bit of UDFA hype. I'm still curious to know why he went undrafted if he's so good. But don't get me wrong, I hope you're right.

It's a team dude. I'm not sure what your thing is for pitting teammates against each other.

I should edit the OP to ask if you're crazy.

The last bit was sarcasm.

But in all seriousness, there was a lot of talk around here about Funchess maybe even becoming the better WR over even Benjamin in mini camp after some impressive performances.

We know what happened after that, several games into the season, people openly began wondering if Funchess was a bad pick. Fast forward to the end of the season, and suddenly everybody loves him again, and he's on his way to being a solid #2.

You can't expect things to go the way you think they will. In all likelihood, whether Garrett is successful or doesn't work out, there are going to be struggles along the way, and people are going to have to be patient.

Regardless, this is the same message board that lauded David Gettis as the next great WR, so forgive me if I'm a little apprehensive at placing absurd expectations on Garrett out of the gate.
