The Love hype train is off the rails
I get that everyone is excited for a potentially league winning back, but it feels like people are just pushing the hype way too far. Everyone acts like he’s guaranteed to be LT in his prime. Let’s not forget how all of the “can’t miss” prospects have panned out in recent years.
2025-Jeanty. Not saying he was bad, but he definitely didn’t put up the rookie season people expected. It could just be the Raiders and things may turn around this year, but it’s not a given.
2024-Caleb and MHJ. Both were considered generational talents that everyone was salivating over. Neither has exactly lit the world on fire. Caleb did put up some fantasy points last year, and made some great plays, but still not close to what was expected.
2023-Bijan. He’s legit. Started a little slow, but has been worth the hype.
2022-Breece. Has shown he has talent, but is nowhere close to the league winner everyone expected.
2021-TLaw. Was all but guaranteed to be the best QB prospect since Manning. Has been middling, with a decent second half last year.
Yes, Love could hit the ground running and prove he belongs in the same tier as Bijan. But the way everyone is treating the 1.01 is as if it’s guaranteed.
Haven’t you all learned anything?
