And another reason why to not rely on a fanbase for predicting the future (certainly someone will claim him). I admit I got it wrong as well. But we really butcher our analyses and predictions (i.e. Wendell only plays Center, Cannon is he best option at Guard, et cetera), with few exceptions.
I did not expect him to get claimed, and was surprised how many seemed to think he would. Blount undoubtedly has skills. But he proved more trouble than he was worth. I have yet to see a single comment defending him or saying anything good about him. His ex-teammates' attitudes seem to range from indifference to "good riddance".
Blount may get a shot if a playoff team gets desperate, but not many GMs will want to risk it.
