I don't think he is trash. He has never fulfilled his first round promise but he has looked good at times and awful at others. He was better this year and pretty good in the playoffs. I think he can be useful as a rotational piece.
True -- I do sometimes default to sports talk hyperbole. I've seen more than a few high draft picks turn it around after missing the first time (that one great season Geno Smith gave the Seahawks was pretty incredible), and it's honestly one of my favorite football stories when it happens (ditto UFAs -- see Huff getting his payday, or folks like Wayne Chrebet and Wesley Welker).
