I wonder what the deal with this is?

There goes a wasted draft pick...

Around half the draft picks don't cut it. You can't hit homers unless you swing and miss a few.

This I would agree with in most cases. But the guy already had an injury history when they picked him, and he subsequently gets hurt again and is now gone. It never made much sense to me, and definitely was a wasted pick even by 4th round standards.

What's the deal with our 2nd-4th round picks at LB'er since 2000?

Fortt - 4th Rd
Martez Wilson - 3rd Rd
Stanley Arnoux - 4th Rd
Alfred Fincher - 3rd Rd
C. Watson - 2nd Rd
Cie Grant - 3rd Rd
James Allen - 3rd Rd

That list is pretty atrocious. Curse of the Dome Patrol???

Sorry I misspelled his first name. It should be Khairi.
