    if you were talking about Antonio Brown I would be inclined to agree with you.

    however, the jury is definitely still out on Dwyer.

    There are about 4-5 undrafted players with more value. Maybe 10-15 if you just take players drafted 5th round or later + undrafted.

    Did you seriously just refer to me as "son"?

    Sigh...

After all, if I am "taken seriously" on an Internet message board, I will get into Harvard and eventually become president of the United States. If not, none of that is going to happen.

    Look, let's try to keep it real. Dude said that JD might not be any good because he "still looked soft in the middle." I merely pointed out that a guy named Bettis was way more soft in the middle and he did OK, it seems. NO WHERE did I claim JD was as good as Bettis, I merely POINTED OUT A FACT that Bettis was a lot more fat than this kid. DO NOT DEAL IN STRAW MAN ARGUMENTS, as they are the tool of the weak minded.
    I don't think "soft in the middle" has anything to do with weight.... I read it as a knock on Dwyer in between the tackles.

    You are absolutely correct... But if any of the Dwyer bashers are as gifted in prognostication as they seem to think so... Than please help me make my lottery picks this week! I need your help! Seriously though... On the flip side, I have a feeling JD is going to turn out just fine if he stays healthy and motivated. Lets all just give him his chance... Because every time he rips a nice run we'll all be cheering... Now if you are rooting against him for some personal satisfaction or vendetta... that is another story...

    Most people are taking a wait and see approach with Dwyer.

    I don't think anyone. wants to see Dwyer fail... and a lot of the bashing is directed at Dwyer's dad.

    Your "lucky 7" post is a very good one. Time will tell what Dwyer can do or can't do. If the preseason is an indicator there is cause to be positive because he can be a difference maker at RB.

    However, don't doubt there are some who don't want him to be successful because they just want to say they are right or they have invested their opinions and prognostications excessively in another player.
