No one is playing in this game to show heart. They're playing because they have stock to improve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's his eating hand, which explains why he's under 170 and didn't want to weigh in. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be nervous about Chase. COVID could have just been an easy out. He knew that there was enough other guys opting out to make it acceptable and won't hurt his draft stock too much. I'm a medical provider. It would have to take a TON for me to take off MY job, or any job during my pursuit to medicine, because of COVID. Of course I have family members at risk...we all do. It would really take having one of my children or wife with immunodeficiency to consider stepping away. I don't know Chase's situation, and maybe he did have a very good reason to say that it's not worth it. But you'd be a fool if you don't think that his personality and drive won't be under the microscope. It absolutely should be...it will very likely be what determines his success. It's a question, and a significant question, that puts him in a higher risk category than Smith, in my opinion. So Smith is skinny? I can work with someone who is skinny but has the drive/work ethic to be elite. Smith and Chase are only comparable prospects if Chase has a very good reason for opting out this season. Me too. The difference is, if you get hurt on the job, your future earnings aren't in question. If chase got injured, his draft stock would plummet and he was already a consensus first round pick. It's not at all the same. And Smith has been skinny for 4 years. I don't think it's something that can be fixed. There hasn't been a receiver as skinny as Smith at his height who has been a great success in the NFL. Hence the understandable apprehension.

If I took a year off it wouldn't hurt my earning potential? Oh contrare. Marvin Harrison was skinny the day he entered the league, and the day he left it. He was fine...one of the greatest WR's ever. With Chase, you have a guy who voluntarily decided that he'd rather avoid the risk of injury (and perhaps work) instead of improving his game on the field. Absolutely, I question his drive and his desire to play. Everyone else will as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeezla Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 Tbh, DeVonta should have done 1 cycle of roids starting the moment he hired an agent. Probably could have packed on a quick 7 or 8 and been clean by his pro day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
