Since then Smith has skipped workouts and Chase has shown what doing nothing but working out for one year can do. DV has went from #3OA talk to mid 1st round because of it.
Idk if it was BS or what but when they were talking about his hand still being bruised and ligament damage at the first Bama pro day I got a little scared.
Unless I saw the hand at 100% before the draft I would be super hesitant to draft a WR with one healthy hand in the first round.
Maybe we get them both. We go get Chase and then the skinny kid with the bum hand falls way further than expected like players do every year. Bama has a history of sending damaged goods to the NFL.
