I think maybe we're just being a little inpatient in regards to Wright. This coaching staff seems pretty adept at figuring out which young guys are ready to step up and which one needs more time.

When it comes down to it this situation is similar to what you'd see if the starting QB was having problems and we had a 4th round draft pick behind him this season. People want to see the unknown quantity because "it couldn't possibly be any worse!".

Wright is a 4th round draft pick who is very unfamiliar with the offense. Hopefully the coaching staff can bring him around and if he needs to warm the bench for a season then so be it.

I'm in the camp of people that would like to see Wright play ... but if the coaching staff doesn't think he's ready, I say give him the time he needs.
