But sometimes insiders and coaches are wrong, or so want to be right about players that they miss what's right in front of their faces. The same thing happens to fans. I'd love to be wrong about Calvin Pace--and so would cheese--and we'll happily eat crow on him if and when he proves us wrong.
The team and most of the fans were wrong about Thomas Jones. If Kendrick Clancy is looking bad in practices, then I'd like to hear that rather than how well Langston Moore is doing.
Thanks for the information that you bring to the board. Sorry if I turned you off of ASFN.
If Green had drafted Pace I might buy into the argument that the coaches just wanted to be right about him. But Green not only didn't draft Pace, he's been "calling him out" since he arrived, signing Berry, complaining that he had to do that when they had a first rounder from last year at that position(Pace), etc.
If Green is excited about Pace I suspect it's because Pace is looking really good in camp, I'm one of the biggest Green skeptics on this board but Hardy made a very good point last night, do people REALLY believe that Green wants to lose, especially this year when losing would probably result in his being fired? Green made the personal choices when he first got here, getting rid of players he didn't like even if it hurt the talent on the roster, I don't think he's doing that stuff anymore he got his point across loud and clear then. Right now Green knows the pressure is on, win, or go work at ESPN again.
