Taking time to recover from that injury to then train to Test was probably a tight time line and I think that he just decided to
let his game tape speak for him.
When testing can only hurt you then I am not sure that I would push as hard as he would of had to in order to be Testing ready.
It is probably harder for a man his size to get ready to Test and what if he were to get injured while getting ready or he thought he was
100% back when he really wasn't resulting in a less than optimum Test.
Orlando Brown Jr had a poor Combine & dropped in the Draft, yet he turned out well as a Pro.
I think that I would have done what Latham did. Watch my Tape & if you want me, you want me.
Probably right, thankfully it was just a high ankle sprain even if those hurt like a sumbitch, no surgery needed.
I would still take Latham at 18, if Mims is not there who I like a touch better with his balance, athleticism and upside.
But Latham would be a good pick and can understand the coaches if they take Latham over Mims with the snap difference.
