The expectations for Detroit Lions rookies should be tempered

Expectations are a funny thing. For example, I had expectations this article would be easy to write and then I couldn’t stay focused on what I wanted to say and I wound up deleting everything I wrote and started over again. Things don’t always work out the way you think they will.

As it relates to football, sometimes your football team drafts a bunch of guys and you expect most of them to start right away and be stars. When that doesn’t happen, you tend to get upset and use the word bust. Sometimes it happens as early as the release of the unofficial depth chart.
