Terrible look for Robert Nkemdiche here. Most of the time when guys show up out-of-shape, the coach will crack the whip a bit and give them time. Kingsbury basically said he's not worth the effort.

I'd bring him in for a try out. I know we're stack at DL, but Nkemdiche was very promising early in his career, and he's not in a position to negotiate so maybe we can get high quality depth on the cheap ?

Frenchie I like you man, but I think the idea of bringing in a first round pick who was cut at the start of training camp for being soooo overweight (at the start of the season that's going to make or break his career as he was supposed to hit FA next year) is the worst idea I've heard in a while. He's not high-quality depth, if he's this unmotivated going into his 4th year I bet he won't last 6.

Haha I hear you, I just think a work out could allow you to know if he's that out of shape or if part it was dissensions between the Cards and him...

Plus I think part of it is I'm just curious to see where he's at, I remember picking him up in a dynasty IDP league after seeing some nice flashes.

It's crazy how someone that talented can be such a fat lazy ass. What a waste, if he doesn't figure it out real fast.

I seriously doubt Club Jay is the place to go if you need discipline instilled in you to maintain a reasonable condition during the off season. I don't understand these athletes that let themselves go to crap during the off season. During the off season working out a couple hours 4-5 days a week and not over eating or drinking too many empty calories can maintain reasonable condition. How hard is that? If you are an athlete your body is how you earn a living, it should be your #1 priority.
