I don't think he went undrafted Because of the foot, at least not solely. I think he ran slower than expected, and I don't think anyone knew the foot was still ****ed at that point. I think his injury history is kinda terrifying and the neck probably took him off a lot of boards right there. I think that' the neck, the foot, and running a pedestrian 40 probably did it for most teams. But pretending that his high school 40 time is relevant ( not you, I know) or that 4.63 is as fast as he can be when we know the foot was still screwed up, is just being disingenuous. I'm rooting for the kid because I love an underdog story, but I'm not expecting anything. He's a long shot, but we don't have to be dishonest about it to try to make some weird flex point. I'm not saying you specifically were, but others on this thread certainly are. |

The spinal injury wasn't football related, it was a corrective surgery. So the only (that im aware of) injury that he's really had on the field was the foot. One foot injury does not make for a broke dick player. You won't find me in the camp of, "We can't count on Justyn Ross to stay healthy". Im not worried about that at all until shown otherwise. |

I was one of them, and it was just opportunity cost, i liked other guys more. But i never rooted against him, and. I didn't HATE the pick, I could see the potential value and the reasoning, there were just other guys in other positions I liked more. There were safeties I liked more. Happens every year, and most times I end up going "huh, guess I got that wrong as well"

I have zero idea why that would matter. I don't think we can pretend to do the film work or in-person visits that our FO does. Why would we expect to know as much/more than they do?

Anyway, what I'm basically getting reading between the lines is we all agree, Ross is a rich man's Hopkins and a HoF talent.

I thought he looked fantastic as he got more involved with the defense. In the playoffs, he looked incredible. I certainly agree with you though, that at some point, everyone probably needs to recognize that we have a great FO and they're going to get it right most of the time. |

Damn, you got it man. That's literally what we've been saying, but in a cryptic way. You figured out the DaVinci Code and now you need to watch your back, because the Opus Dei will be on your ass. You should call Tom Hanks and see what he would do.
