Personally, I'm a big Fan of this Move.
01 ~ Worthy was an extremely popular Prospect hereabouts in the Draft Forum in 2012, but I thought'm seriously overrated, and said so on my Blog. He's explosive ~ tremendous Launch Velocity ~ but I had concerns about'is Power and, more crucially, about'is Fluidity. Furthermore, I shared Brother Craig's concerns about'is Motor, and thought that the Packers made an hysterically asinine Blunder at #51.
I can only suppose that Mad Bill destroyed their Plans when he pounced on Tavon Wilson at #48.
02 ~ The Pick was especially inexplicable in light of the fact that Packers run a 34, whereas everybody on the Planet knew that Worthy, whether Beast or Bust, was clearly a penetrating 43 Tackle. He was therefore horribly matched as a 34 End in Green Bay's System, and it showed.
03 ~ Worthy's current back problems fuel my concerns about'is Motor and'is Conditioning, but the December 2012 ACL Injury that blew up his 2013 Campaign can happen to anyone.
04 ~ What intrigues me most about this Move is that Worthy has now burned through the crucial but generally ignored Take It Through The Gears Year that all Earthlings need in order to get back to 100% of their Former Form, following a serious Injury such as Worthy suffered late in 2012.
05 ~ The other Aspect of this that intrigues me is Psychological: The Much Ballyhooed projected 1st Rounder slipped to the 2nd Round, struggled as a Rookie, got hurt, missed a Year, and now, just 2 Years later, is a forgotten man. We all mature at different speeds, and while I'd be the last guy to pound the table for Worthy, I think it's important to keep in mind that he wouldn't be the first guy to cruise for a few Years but then wake up and evolve when faced with the Death of his Dream.
Great Move, Mad Bill!!
