[QUOTE="Magooch, post: 1011620, member: 17987"] Doesn’t have to be one or the other. All of these things can be true (and I believe they largely are) AND we can still say that Love has underperformed/not lived up to expectations/whatever you want to call it. Anyone who says “This is exactly where I expected Love to be in his development halfway through his fourth year in the league” is either lying to you, lying to themselves, or both. Again: is Love in a [B]uniquely [/B]bad situation? Have other *true* rookies shown more progress/success/development in similarly less-than-ideal situations? Has Love lived up to what we were being sold on years ago (as above: he’ll sit behind Rodgers, learn from a hall of fame QB, master LaFleur’s offense and hit the ground running once Rodgers is gone. [B]The whole point of drafting Love when we did was so that he would be groomed and ready to take over the reigns once Rodgers was gone. [/B]I feel like that cannot be overstated. We spent the last three years unsure of what we had, hedged our bets on a one-year extension, and now are still not sure what we have. This was not the way it was supposed to go and I simply cannot believe we have people here talking like this was to be expected or that we shouldn’t be worried about Love right now. [/QUOTE]
