No, I think we've met roundly with a sense of optimism.
There's certainly the detractors, and everyone seemingly is pointing to the lack of production from Christian Watson.
I called it on air today the great ball-knower test for people.
If you watched Christian Watson in his return from his ACL injury...
he looked like a new person he looked like a guy who had figured out sort of the intricacies of being a wide receiver obviously his size and speed pops off the map that's the thing everyone talks about his ability to win down the field but he was doing the things last season that he hadn't done in the past going up and win winning jump balls using his body to keep defenders away from him it seems
like he really took a step forward and and once he returned from that ACL injury if you extrapolate those games he would have had a more than thousand yard season so I think there's a sense of optimism and a chance that if he blossoms into what they think he could be that they'll actually find themselves having quite the deal.
You might be asking the wrong person from this because I've been a Romeo Dobbs doubter basically since he entered the NFL with the Green Bay Packers.
I think Romeo Dobbs is what he is and his ceiling has been met.
He is not going to be much more than we've seen him produce to this point in his career.
He's a very station to station type of wide receiver.
He's always making catches in a crowd because he can't get away from crowds because there's always somebody around him.
I think his lack of explosiveness and ability to separate from D-backs
has created a thing for Romeo Dobbs where it looks like he's making these incredible catches in traffic, but that's because he only finds himself in traffic.
So I like the idea of paying for the upside of Christian Watson more than the ceiling that I think has already been met from Romeo Dobbs.
I think it's reality slapping some people in the face.
The nine-month timeline fits perfectly with what he sort of projected in the beginning.
I know there was some people getting their hopes up, like, you know, there's a potential he was going to be the freak athlete that comes back super fast and looks like he missed nothing.
