Quote:That would seem to be a sensible approach.

 

If we are right and the team hit on both Lee and Robinson, Blackmon will have to earn his reps.  He will have to earn the coaches' confidence as a man and player and Bortles' confidence as a receiver.  That would undoubtedly include shaking off the rust.

 

He'll definitely have to earn his reps, but as he gets conditioned, I'm pretty confident he'll be able to play his way back on to the field. 

 

It's really sad that we have to sit here and speculate about stuff like this.  For such a tremendous talent to squander this the way he has because of addiction issues is truly a shame.  It's amazing how the life of co-dependency can completely derail even the best among us.  Hopefully he can be one of those who overcomes this and becomes an example of the power of recovery.
