- Paying a Quarterback an extraordinary amount of money is not beneficial to an NFL teams roster in the present, and the future.
Professor David Hodges
davidbdale
What should I call you? I prefer David or Dave, but students uncomfortable with first names can call me Professor or Mister Hodges. My ESL students' charming solution, "Mister David" is my favorite by far.

You appear to have misunderstood the process of developing your Hypothesis in 6 steps from something to broad and general to something more specific, precise, and researchable, Kaboom.
Instead, you appear to be using your list to suggest several very different hypotheses.
1. Hurts is the franchise QB.
2. Eagles should draft a new QB.
3. Spending draft picks to draft the best QB is the right approach.
4. Hurts is the QB for now and the future.
5. Drafting and developing a QB takes too long.
Your first job will be to land on your favorite Hypothesis, then narrow its focus and develop it with details until it can be persuasively argued in 3000 words. Next you’ll have to pitch it to your professor and show that your hypothesis can be researched, not just argued. These are not 3000-word blog posts we’re writing; they’re research papers. It will not do gather a lot of “other people’s opinions” and pit them against one another (although that might get you a guest writer spot at Bleeding Green Nation).
Like all feedback, this is meant to begin a conversation, Kaboom.
I am eager to hear your reply.
I found trouble wording them the way I wanted to so this helped. Could I steal some of those? Also, thanks for the guest writer comment very funny lol.
We who steal from other writers prefer to call it “appropriating,” Kaboom. Take what you need. 🙂
No Reply, Kaboom?
I’m disappointed. I gave you class time to respond!
