The FARLEYCAT

Again, you're talking about a position he hasn't played before. Adoree already had experience in college doing as a gadget player. So it made some sense trying his hand there in the NFL. it didn't work out that well and we stopped.

Why take the risk with Farley? There is little to suggest it would work out either. There is simply zero reason to try this out.

 

I'm actually OK with them coming up with a wildcat package with like 3 plays out of it. Install something in camp, and have it available in a situation to just really mess with a team when you want to screw with a team like the Chiefs or Bills.

You wouldn't have to devote much or any time to it in practice after the install - NFL teams do this all the time where they install something in training camp and don't come back to it until week 8.

As for his injury risk, if he can't get tackled once or twice, he probably can't tackle anyone else and shouldn't be on the field. He's an extremely good athlete that's very comfortable carrying the ball - I don't see him getting lit up.

A trick package used just a few times is a very different thing than trying to use a player as a regular offensive weapon, learn route concepts, or return punts.

 

He was a QB. That is significantly different than a RB/WR gadget player.

 

Being on the receiving end of a hit isn't the same as being the one delivering it. And the point is, you're putting extra punishment on his body. It's an unnecessary risk. Especially when he has zero experience in that sort of role.

 

Correct...QB in HS, intended to play WR in college but got injured, when he returned from injury he converted to CB...don't think he ever played WR

 

0 experience? He ran for over 2,500 yards in a single season in High School and went to college as a WR before switching to CB.

He's also not Adoree at 180lbs soaking wet.

Being tackled in a regular run play is a very different thing than being blasted on by someone running full speed on a punt return too.

 

He ran for 2,500 yards as a QB. Not a RB. Zero experience as am actual WR in college.

I don't know what the 2nd part has to do with what I said. I'm not comparing him to Adoree. The point was, you said if he can't get tackled once or twice, he probably can't tackle anyone. You're missed the entire point. The point is, you're putting unnecessary risk on a guy that already has injury concerns and who isn't used to taking hits.
