Can the Hawks afford Irvin to be a project?

But he could play a position that we werent really looking to draft. He might fit New England to a tee but would struggle in our system. I personally think it's early to start worrying , but feel free.

Here's one thing I do know......I'm watching the Patriots for the 2nd week in a row and for the 2nd week in a row Chandler Jones is absolutely tearing it up for N.E. IF Irvin ends up a bust (and I capitalized the word "IF" because I agree with most here that it is WAY too early to say one way or another.....I think we need to see 2 YEARS from the guy first) and Jones continues to be as good as he's shown so far (likely to my eyes) we're all going to be lamenting not taking Jones with the pick. Dude looks like a Pro-Bowl selection to me.

Oh, and the AZ defense is REALLY as good as they looked against our team last week. They're shuttingh down NE.

:sarcasm_on: I'd rather have Curry than Bruce, 4.5 sacks for a rookie in 5 games is child's play. :sarcasm_off:


Fixed it for ya.

Carpenter, Unger, and Irvin are all great examples on this team of people giving up too quick on players.

Glad the coaching staff is more patient than .net
