Almost undoubtedly the most disappointing draft pick of the current regime’s three-year run, White, the 44th selection overall last year, accomplished little as a rookie, going 0-for-5 passing and rushing for 81 yards on 21 attempts.The first thing he must do during OTAs and the veterans mini-camp late this month is prove he can throw the ball accurately. He was borderline terrible on the practice field last year and, of course, didn’t complete a pass in a game. Source: The Palm Beach Post
while watching the nfl draft this year, espn quoted an interesting stat. the most rookie starters last season came from 1st round picks. the 2nd most rookie starters didn't come from 2nd round picks though. undrafted free agents comprised the 2nd most rookie starters. too much stock is put into the drafted players. a lot of these teams make their hay with the undrafted clbutt. oh, and also, did we need someone to report that pat white has been a huge disappointment? the phins organization immediately stopped defending the pick once they got him on the practice field. they knew they blew that one right away.
