Joe Mathis was not a fucking 1 prior to this year. He started every game of 2015!
This is basically punishing him because people thought he would be good. "HE'S A BUST! ONE!!!!"
What does it matter what people thought he was going to be?
I can see how you might've thought he was a substandard starter and given him a 2, but a 1 is like Dane Crane and Jeff Lindquist. Joe started every fucking game in 2015.
Joe was only a 4 or a 5 for 3 games of his career, though, so I get that part.
He had 6 TFL and 2 sacks in 2015...he was pretty invisible.
You make a good point though if I ranked again I might revise him upward to a 3 but I can't see giving him a 4 or 5.
Well, yeah. I'm not really arguing for a 4 or 5. And I know he had shit stats last year... I suppose to be fair that was somewhat mitigated by the fact that he played that weird "Evan Hudson" position where you are just supposed to take up space (that position has since been eliminated on our D).
His whole career, I thought Joe was going to be really good. Last summer I was sexting Coker nonstop about how jazzed I was that he was going to play BUCK... and halfway through the Rutgers game I completely threw in the towel on him and I completely shit on him in my game review.
But just like every other fucking decision I make that was FS, because by the time he played Oregon he was a monster. And then he broke every bone in his lower body or something (shout out to me!) and had to end his career there.
We're ranking mostly Petersen recruits now if I'm not mistaken? Exciting. I'm just subtracting 1* from all of them right off the too for too much whiteness.

Yeah this will be the first group of Petersen's class coming through now (not early entrants like last year), and guys that have been with Pete for four years that were recruited by Sark. Really excited to see what the results will show!

As Donald Trump would say: Sad!
*Psalm thinks he gets an invite
It is almost here... I'll send out a call to action in the coming weeks for anyone that wants to participate in my favorite offseason event.
Feel free to look at last years results in this thread.
