People calling D Ford a bust are complete idiots, and are probably the same people who wrote off Fisher, Berry, Hali after his switch to OLB, and others. You have to give players time to transition to the NFL. You especially have to give then time if they have played behind two pro bowl OLB and have never played a full season as a starter.

Well, I, for one, thinks Ford is a bust and I'm not a COMPLETE idiot. And yeah it takes time for some to develop, but good heavens, this guy is now in his third year and I haven't seen him develop any single skillset other than his first step. Combine that with Hali's subtle admonition that the guy doesn't work when in the building, and well, you have the makings of what I'm calling a bust.
I totally agree with Milk in that if he wasn't a first round pick, he'd be running 3rd string (if that). I think the kid just doesn't have the heart of a warrior. Not that he's soft; he just doesn't want it bad enough to really work on his game.
The idiot has spoken.
