For some reason this 6th round pick entered the collective Rams fan mind as THE 2018 summer whipping boy .
Lots of 6th rounders don't make it.
But Hemingway became the magnet for frustrated disappointment in a player.
For some reason.
...
No less a personage than McVay himself spoke very highly of Hemingway last year. In fact, McVay seemed genuinely devastated when Hemingway got hurt.
So it’s understandable why some of us fans had high hopes for the kid under McVay.
But that's weird logic.
Sounds like people should be disappointed in McVay on this.
He pumped up a player who didn't have what it takes to make it.
Again, Hemingway tried. No one anywhere faulted his effort or mindset. So he doesn't deserve this kind of negative attention. And of course 6th round picks RARELY make it.
According to your own reasoning, McVay was wrong to pump up a player who turns out wasn't going to make it. And he's a TE coach too so shouldn't be raising expectations on a kid who is just another 6th round cut.
That's where the disappoinment should go.
