It actually isn't. I was relaying what I was told by members of the staff as to their expectations for TB. It doesnt mean that others won't progress and be able to hold him off wrt playing time. It means that they think he will be the best OT prospect we have landed in a long time and as such, will be the best OT when he joins the team. Whether that actually happens or turns out to be true is another thing entirely. But it doesnt change their projection or expectation for TB. Its just a prediction made by members of the staff. I dont think many think we have many, if any, sure-fire first rounders on our roster at present at OT. Jones, Johnson, Shepherd, Moore, etc may all get there over the next two years, but they arent there now. But yeah there is no conflict in relaying the staff's projection for TB with my hope that y'all are right and not disagreeing that others may develop enough over the next two or three years to hold him off, unless you are just trying to be obtuse.
Sorry for the thread derail.
