The read option has basically been replaced by RPOs, which is basically the read option with the third option being a pass. So hinging his future failures on the death of the read option considering that its first cousin is alive and well at the moment is somewhat strange. He was a pin-point deep passer in his rookie season, and to your point, he fell off drastically in that respect after the injury. But I don't think that we should look at him as a savior. This could be a forgotten blurb in due time. Does anyone remember the hoopla on the board about us signing Trent Richardson and being another sign of our FO ruining the roster? Nothing came of it and he essentially never resurfaced. You're able to bring in 90 players at this very moment. He'll either be released before making it to the final roster should he struggle with his play or his health, or he'll prove himself enough to earn a back up spot. Unless we signed him to a deal with guaranteed money, there's virtually no risk here.
