He's not wrong, but the timeline of tolerance is going to be compressed based on who the pick is. If it's Jones, and he starts the season and doesn't play well initially, the fans aren't going to have patience and the negativity will begin to seep into the locker room.
If there are fans on opening week, prepare for the "we want Sudfield!" Or "we want Rosen!" chants if Jones throws a pick.
Jones is not going to get the benefit of the doubt that most rookie QBs taken that high would get.
This is true
instant intense pressure to be great
They have added pressure. I was ok with the Solomon Thomas pick and hoped he would develop but it is clearly a failure now. Fans already hold that against them and now if they mess up this pick the amount of capital lost is probably close to 2 #2 picks and fans won't forget or go easy on them about the whole trust thing and the future.
