I disagree. I don't think it's an indication of mediocrity among the other DEs, I think it's an indication of just how good Patterson is. I have heard many enthusiastic reports about Frost's abilities, and have heard similar things about Jay Richardson. Also, if Kudla can stay healthy, he should be a force. I think any of those three guys could play a role similar to what Simon Fraser did in '02. I hope that ends up being the case, anyway. Just imagine... it's the fourth quarter, and Fraser and Patterson are going at the opponent with fresh legs... SCARY!
