I don't think anybody is being unreasonable considering those 2 facts.
That is a separate issue- Speaks didn't control where he was drafted. So far it looks like Veech reached a little on the pick- but people are basically writing him off as a bust in 4 games. The ones that hated the pick because they wanted their guy instead have been the most critical.

Go back and watch the Jags game- Speaks was in Bortle's head. So he took a few bad angles and looked like a rookie on some snaps- Speaks still played with a lot of energy and that fumble recovery was huge since it instantly negated the interception.

All those QB hits and pressures plus a fumble recovery was a decent game- except for Speaks- he is still called fat and slow.
