    I've always been a long-term thinker... I never expect or even hope a rookie starts in year one - maaaaybe contribute.

    Agree, not upset Wilson in particular isn't starting but at least contribute.
    Hell, show us you want to play pro football at least

    I don’t remember a rookie class dealing with as many injuries/illnesses either.

    I'm pretty much the opposite for 1st round picks outside QB.

    QB is the most difficult to transition from College to NFL, I'm a fan of letting a rookie sit for a year, play sparingly at best.

    For every other position, 1st round picks should be playing first year. Maybe not game 1, but first year.

    I think the point generally not being discussed is that there were no training camps, rookie camps, or preseason, so all rookies had very little preparation for this season. Some are clearly succeeding either by talent level or lucky situation, but it's definitely a rarity.

    I think that has stretched well passed just rookies. The league as a whole seems very beat up.
    I think it has to be attributed to lack of preseason activities and camps.

    only 1 in there not currently on the roster, and all of them producing - from solid rotational, all the way up to offensive and defensive cornerstone pieces.

    Fulton was a homerun pick. Had a first round grade by everyone I pay attention to. He has been injured, and I think you will see most teams having subpar rookie production this season with the shortened offseason.
    I'm worried about Wilson, but I believe Fulton is going to be very solid.

    I agree on Fulton, I think he will end up being a solid pro and starter for us.

    Wilson at least saw the field this week and the ceiling of the stadium as he was knocked flat on his butt. Kid should be embarrassed by that effort. I'm sure teams will pay attention to see if Wilson gets in again and will scheme pressure right at him.....just pathetic
