Alontae Taylor and the importance of scouting
The draft is such a gamble for anyone. Teams, and scout don't always get it right. Fans, like ourselves, think we know more and pat ourselves when we are right. I guaranteed some of you guys, including myself, don't know the names or watch these players religiously. These names only came up in our mind when the season was over and draft coverages were coming on through the network. I am always a wait and see type of person and watch training camp closely before making any opinion. For now I am going mostly by the team's coaches and scout on this one. On paper, he seems to have the physical tools. But we must factor in coaching, systems and chemistry in determining a player's success. Look at Richard Sherman and all those players that was drafted by the Seahawks during 2011 and beyond. They were not first rounders. Apparently 31 other teams really messed up. But those players were put in the right situation.
