John Ross: reports of his demise are greatly exaggerated.

[Goddard]

He was divisive coming out but there were plenty of people that appreciated him as a prospect. If you didn't like him, you like him even less. If you liked him, you probably want to actually see him play football before you flush him down the toilet.

No doubt he's an easy target to bash, not denying that, so carry on.

Was just asking a simple question. I guess you're one of the few who liked him last year. No one's blaming you for holding and hoping he does something. I'm sure there are still plenty of people who drafted Treadwell and are still holding and waiting.

I guess I'm a little surprised that you didn't know anybody liked Ross last year considering your post count indicates that you have lived on a dynasty message board for a very long time. Admittedly felt like you were being a little snarky. If not, no harm no foul. I'm here to tell you that there was indeed a John Ross Fan Club that advocated taking him as early as the the mid 1st.

I guess you missed the sarcasm, but I like that you continue to throw jabs. No worries, though, just keep hoping Ross becomes the WR1 you drafted him to be in the mid 1st.

I"m not heavily invested. I own him in a league. 1 of my 6 dyno leagues. I picked him up off waivers. I'll take the wait and see approach at least till I'm forced to make cuts. He is young and has potential. Up to this point though, not much to talk about. He is 22 years old, 5'11 and 195lbs. The book just isn't written on him yet. Spose it comes down to roster size.

Hahaha I'm going to dial this one back, feels like it's escalating quickly. For real if you were just busting my balls it's all good man. I was definitely never realistically expecting Ross to become a WR1. I am optimistic he can be a really effective field stretcher and playmaker at a bare minimum though. Cincy should try using him like Pats are using Cooks and Texans are using Fuller right now. Not fantasy gold, but useful.

No worries, just having some good fun. For what it's worth, I really liked Ross in college, just never believed he'd be anything more than a role player in the pros.

The appropriate title of the thread should have just been "The Roast of John Ross"

Guys in my league can give up on a player crazy early. I got John Ross cheap off waivers last year.

What is everyone's take on him headed into year two. I guess it can't be worse than year 1.

definitely a hold

Wow that is kinda crazy, Goddard has 13,000 posts in 13 months. That is insane.

I appreciate that Mullmania. I try to give honest and thought out feedback and help others out. I've said this once before, but I'm lucky to have a job with lots of free time in between clients, which allows me to be on this forum doing something I enjoy. Didn't realize having lots of posts was a bad thing, not sure if that's how it was intended when pointed out. I guess I'm pretty consistent though, 13k posts in 13 months .

And if you could please remind people to comment more, that'd be great. I've really been slacking here for the last month or so because I keep reading the comments but forgetting that I can actually respond. You've had 13k opportunities to get me a reminder, and I believe you've failed every time. That's pretty bad even if this were a baseball forum.

I'll try to increase my emoji count
And I'll try to do a better job of reminding everyone that they need to respond to 5 threads before posting their own

I took him early in one of my drafts and am still sticking with him. He was only slightly smaller than OBJ at the combine. It's not like we're talking Tavon Austin size here. Certainly, the health issues are a concern, but he claims he was late to camp because of NCAA rules, fell behind and spent most of the season catching up. I don't fully buy into that, but I'll definitely give him another season before I'm looking for an exit point.
