What's the deal with Tyquon Lewis?

[Pacergeek]

Is Lewis really injured, or is he a bust? I think Reich says he needs to get in football shape. This seems suspicious to me.

Bust.

Bust.

I recall how excited CB was after drafting him

I’m starting to think this. I think we are starting to see several cracks in the “everyone is a star pick” from CB. Hit on Leonard and Big Q. Looks like we have some good pieces coming up but no just flat out ballers who can stay healthy. And if you can’t stay healthy, you aren’t balling.

Injury prone is his biggest problem.

[1959Colts]

the deal is...

he rarely plays, and when he does, he doesn't do much. 

[colts52761]

not impressed

Yeah, Lewis and Q. Wilson have been disappointing 2nd Rd picks.

I think he was injury prone in college too.

[Fisticuffs111]

He's definitely dealt with injuries and IMO his flashes have come a little too few and far in between.

I do think if he could stay healthy he'd eventually be an okay rotational piece (or at least not a negative on the field), but my hopes aren't super high for him.

I think he is way too small to be an elite player, inside.

 

And I believe he is too slow to be a force, outside.

 

If you're small, you need to have elite quickness when you play inside.

 

If you're a big end, you need to have elite strength. 

 

And he just doesnt have enough of either.

 

He also doesnt stay healthy, so there is that.

Probably a good example of a good college player who can't make the leap.

 

Seems like a great dude though...and his character got him a bit overdrafted.

Injuries have kept him from playing much at all so it's hard to get a good grasp on what he really does well if anything at all. 

[lollygagger8]

Hard to believe he's that much worse than the current D-Line players (not named Autry/Sheard).

Very bad news for the colts.
