not to "cane" the issue here, but i have a question about Ronnie Brown... Before i ask please understand that we haven't had a top pick in a draft since i've been a fan, so i don't know what usually to expect or what happens with high picks... but i'm assuming you've probably represented some in your day.
I am sure no one in the organization is expecting Ronnie to come out putting up pro-bowl numbers.... and i know Saban is publicly saying "ronnie is doing fine".... but is there any sweating behind the scenes?
Second question - do you think its fair that due to standards developed over time, that teams have to pay players so much money, just because of where they were selected in the draft.... it seems there is no protection to the teams if they draft a player and they turn out not to be worth the dough. (please note i am NOT inferring that RB is a bust, i am speaking in general. ex. Leaf, Akili Smith, etc...)
Do you not think there should be a team protection clause in the contracts? perhaps performance-based contracts? what do you think about that whole thing?
