Here we go with this crap again !!!! It seems like every year people want to claim are 1st round draft pick is a bust when we haven't even played a preseason game. Of course he is gonna have some trouble !!! 1. He's a rookie 2. He's learning a new position 3. We've been stuck in a lockout

Fangio must of noticed Aldon's hands were on his hips...the #1 incator of a player not picking up the scheme fast enough.

He's still the best we got.

just for comparisons sake, patrick peterson is running with the 2nd team, aj jefferson (who?) is running with the first team

All I'm saying is that anybody who expects him to come out and be a beast immediately is gonna be disappointed.

You talk up the players doing poorly while talking down the ones who are tearing it up out there. This is known as strategy.
