There seems to be alot of people saying that lately and I'm really not sure why. I guess it depends on when you expect him to contribute. At some point during the season? Yeah. But immediately? No way.
He's not expected to see any playing time until the end of the preseason, and even that might be pushing it. He's coming off a serious injury and needs to be worked back into the mix slowly. They're also working on getting his weight down closer to 255 to help him get some speed back and take some pressure off his knees.
I honestly don't see him as a guarantee to even make the final roster.
