Well, the goal is to get to the entire class eventually. I’ll save the alleged academic risks for the end so I don’t potentially end up wasting work, but otherwise we should get to everyone by the time fall camp convenes. Maybe sooner, depending on how desperate I get for content over the summer.

WDEwg, I plan on looking back at them in a few years, yes, although I’m sure I’ll be overly optimistic on a number of recruits. After basically pooh-poohing Daren Bates’ chances last year, I don’t think I’m going in for the glass half-empty approach very often any more … even if the law of averages dictates that obviously not every member of a 32-strong class will become a productive player. But there’s not really any fun in being pessimistic about players with lots to recommend them, even if time proves you right.

These are great, Jerry.

I really like that you focus on the less heralded signees. We all know about the Dyers and Newtons, but it’s nice to have these other guys fleshed out a bit.

Jerry- Thanks again for these writeups. I hope you are archiving them somewhere, so that you can compile an accountability report say in 4-5 years.

Also, I don’t know why- but the whole comparison to Tigger made me laugh hard.

I’ll go back to cleaning water off my monitor now, thank you very much.
