If he didn’t he’d be on the list for possible top 5 picks. He just has physical tools that you don’t find past the middle of the first round. He’s a gamble, but could pay off in a BIG way.

Modern medicine is helping players come back faster. Look at Packers WR Amari Rodgers. At Clemson the guy tore his ACL in March and came back to play in week 3. He came back and was effective in 6 months. Cam Akers ruptured his Achilles, which is a worse injury. Came back and looked good after a little over 5 months. This guy for his ACL in January. I bet he’ll be ready for a team mid season. Maybe earlier with a 6 week PUP designation to start the season.

It’s certainly possible, I’m just talking about the most likely scenario

Draft value chart says we could trade our early 3rd (and 1st) to say Arizona at 23 or Dallas at 24 if The team liked him.

Neither of them missed the entire offseason before their rookie season. I'm sure you are right but no amount of explaining is going to make it sounds like a good deal to me. Probably just agree to disagree.

I’d be fine with that bc he is actually a really smart guy per reports. He can still participate in camp just not anything involving hits. To me it’s all between the ears. He knows how to play.
And honestly we don’t need him to be Superman. We still have Tyreek and Kelce. Even a guy like that starting out is dangerous as a #3 option. The problem we had is that Robinson and Pringle just can’t get open. They don’t have the necessary talent. This guys talent alone would be so good as a #3 receiving option as a rookie

If we move up for J Williams I'll be super excited, even more so if he falls to us, but I agree with others that there are so many healthy options in FA and the draft that if he's not ready to go I'd be surprised if we do take him.
Can we start a persistent rumor that his injury is progressing horribly so he falls to us? Does anyone here know how to use twitter bots to spread disinformation lol? Last edited by Couch-Potato; 02-22-2022 at 10:13 PM.. |

At the moment? Jerome Ford (5'11" 220lbs 4.4 speed) looks like fun:

I saw in a couple of different prospect ranking articles where he was in the 10-15 top RB range. That would probably put him in the 3rd or 4th round. Thoughts?

Yeah, you've been on this guy for a bit.
I'm a fan in the middle rounds. Sure seems like the most pure explosion we'll be able to get for the investment. There may be some faster guys in the draft (and there may not be) but those would cost more than he's likely to require. Then again, if Ford goes out there and runs in the 4.3s at the combine, you could see him sneaking into the 2nd pretty easily and I'm just not excited about that. And am I the only one that sees a WR playing RB there? Build and running style just doesn't seem like a RB.
