Like I said. He was hurt.  He only played 12 games and had a lingering hamstring injury.   You're not gonna be 100% with a lingering hamstring injury.

getting old is a bear.

not sure one could expect that trend to change, especially if the contract to land him is for >1 season.

He played hurt in those games, but he did look bad. Was he bad cause he was playing hurt, was he bad because it was an awful situation and he was frustrated, was he bad because he's aged some and taken a beating and just doesn't have as much left in the tank? It's a scary question.

If that is the case, I really don't want him. It means he is a headcase that let's outside influences effect his play. Not good. If he was hurt and kept playing, that hurt his team. He would've been better off sitting out than playing so poorly. If he doesn't have much left in the tank, that would be bad as well. It's a no-win situation with him. I take a hard pass. 

Remember how Robinson was caught on camera yelling at Blake Bortles? Trevor is gonna make some mistakes, he's young. Do we really wanna bring some "diva type" WR in here to mess with Lawrence's head if he makes a mistake?

This is absolutely not a worry for me. You can tell in the demeanor of this team that the entire team is behind TLaw. I could never say that with Bort. Everyone seemed to be standing aside to see just how he was gonna screw up this time. 

TLaw is in command of this team, and at least thusfar there doesn't seem to be discontent among the ranks with respect to his role as team lead.
