He's been behind the 8 ball with the fans since that draft. Had he been selected in the 3rd or later, I think he wouldn't draw such criticism. 

He also was Zac Taylor's first 2nd round pick, he ended up being our 3rd TE that year, played just 3 offensive snaps in Week 1, and then we went 2-14.

It was all pretty much just a cascade of bad... but it goes beyond his draft status.

Drew Sample is the answer to "What if you took Reggie Kelly, removed his leadership qualities, and then made him less athletic despite everyone else in the NFL becoming more athletic over the last two decades?"

Even now I think you'd be better off just finding a 6th offensive lineman who would be better at blocking and then just throwing him the ball like 5 times a year.
