the abilities of EJ have not been fully put to test.
When EJ has a HC that is willing to play him w/o reservations we will see if he's capable or not.
people are willing to see others players develop and give then 3 or 4 years to prove themselves, yet get 2 faced when it comes to EJ.
If he is the starter and has a negative TD to INT ratio, takes too many sacks or consistently can;t hit the side of a barn I'll say he's a failure.
until then I'll give him the benefit of doubt just like I gave CJ, SJ13, Moulds, Evans, and even Mario Williams when he warranted criticism his first season here.
