When was the last time the skins drafted a "can't miss guy"? Was it trent williams? Robert had some Qs and rak was just a bust. Hopefully that changes tomorrow night with our pick.I wouldn't call Orakpo a bust. He couldn't stay healthy at the end here, but his rookie year was great, and overall he was a good player and starter.
Yeah, Trent Williams and before him Chris Samuels seems like "can't miss" players. Thought Lavar Arrington was too, even though he turned out to be Mr. "can't get right" and a turd afterwards (can't believe Snyder put him in the Skins Ring of Fame) he was still a probowler.

Sean Taylor was clearly going to be a star. And was, albeit for far, far too short a time.

Sean was amazing, he honestly could have been the best player in franchise history when it was all said and done

Who's to say Sean wouldn't have become dissatisfied with the coaching merry go round, losing and refuse to extend his contract like Champ Bailey? Just saying.

A lot more when into Champ leaving besides just a contract

I said losing and coaching carousel, today's player wants to win like LeBron. I miss the days of Walter Payton playing for a shitty bears team and becoming a powerhouse.

Well losing ST probably lost us Gibbs which I think restarted the carousel. It was a dark day in Skins history.

Chip Kelly is at it again, Kendricks would be a real nice pickup.

Losing ST did nothing in the grand scheme in term of Gibbs walking away. Gibbs wasn't dumb. He knew the team was old and that he had no depth. He simply bailed while he could still muster a competitive team. He knew good and well the moves they made were short term and the window had closed. There wasn't anything noble or some higher calling for Gibbs walking away. He simply quit while the getting was good.
