Trent Richardson update

[saphojunkie]

Didn't see this anywhere, and I couldn't find the Trent Richardson thread. Sorry I'm even a marginally capable detective.

Trent Richardson had surgery on his knee, and won't participate in the combine. However, Chris Mortenson now reporting that he won't even participate in the Alabama pro day.

Those who want him to fall to us at 11 will likely get your wish. They are saying he could fall as low as #21.

The new question is...do you take a risk on him in the top 15?

RB Trent Richardson wont be working out in Bama Pro Day March 7, either. Sometime in March after Scope removed small loose particle in knee

All I know is, having John Tait on the right side with Shields, Roaf, and Waters made us unstoppable.

Let's not also forget that Branden Albert is going into the last year of his contract. We might be drafting his replacement.

The 3 guys you listed were drafted to be LTs and didn't end up cutting it.

Let's throw out all of the other arguments that have been had about Richardson the last few weeks.

You NEVER NEVER NEVER draft a guy in the top 15 that is unable to workout AT ALL prior to the draft.

You are jaded.

This is the absolute most minor thing you can have done medically.

It's the definition of "routine surgery"

James Andrews said that these are done during the season each year and most of the time the player doesnt even miss a game.

Lets not act like this is some big deal because it really isn't.

He won't workout at the combine and he won't workout at the pro-day.

If you draft a guy that can't workout AT ALL, you're an idiot.

That's not jaded at all, that's smart football.

I thought I saw a flash on the TV in the last couple of days that said he would work out at his pro day. It might have been Mayock

If that were true, I'd agree with you.

It isnt, though. He will work out during his pro day.
