I have always wondered, at what point does the team know they missed on a pick? For example, on the first day of Cardinals training camp, was it obvious that the team had missed on the Josh Rosen pick? Did the Bengals know right away that Joe Burrow was going to be a star?
I remember when the Niners drafted Lance all the reports would come out of him throwing under 50 percent in practice, and all the players would say quotes about him like “ he’s learning and processing fast.” I wonder if they secretly knew they fucked up, and that’s why they retained Jimmy the next year just in case
