Pff - Ford has NFL-caliber athleticism, but he's not NFL-ready to carry a large workload on tape.
FB Guys - Ford was once a prized Alabama recruit but said he wasn’t comfortable in their culture. He made good on his transfer to Cincinnati with a breakout 2021 as the lead back that highlighted his size and strength. Ford shows potential as a receiver but needs more patience and nuance as a runner if he is going to hit in the NFL. The pieces are there, but Ford has to put it all together.
DLF - Post-Draft Summary: Ford fell all the way to the fifth round before being taken by the Cleveland Browns. It was a really disappointing fall for Ford, who was looking like a second round rookie pick going into the 2022 NFL Draft. His fall and less-than-ideal landing spot leaves him as a third or fourth round rookie pick at the moment. Still, there's a lot to like here and fantasy managers who can be patient for a couple of years could be rewarded.
