Well take someone like Smith. He could absolutely be too small and flame out. But he could also be the next Reddick, and he might be the next Reddick quicker than Reddick developed because he has Reddick to learn from. That seemed a decent gamble to me. They know how we MIGHT fit.
I get the point that playing on a stacked team can make you look good, but man a lot of these guys just...were good imo. I'm pretty certain the Eagles weren't just watching their highlights.
I mean other than Walker what are we using to say they're overrated or haven't worked out?
