Wonder if coming out early was a smart move Ahmed?

https://www.nfl.com/prospects/salvon-ahmed?id=32194148-4d08-8990-8df4-f46ca7aff75b

Overview
Scatback who is light on his feet but suffers from a debilitating lack of vision and decisiveness that prevents him from reaching his athletic potential as a runner. Ahmed lacks feel for blocking scheme and run-lane development, but even struggled to see it and hit the gas when clear points of entry were available. He can hit a daily goal with the amount of steps he uses on each carry, but it prevents him from being able to plant and go with much-needed efficiency. He's athletic with open-field speed, but leaves too many chunk plays out on the field and faces an uphill battle to make a team.

    Everyone here could see he never got any better from year to year. Maybe a little more physical, but not that much, and he never got any better at reading blocks. Another year probably wouldn't do much, but he really had no reason to leave early.

    Zierlein on Trey:

    After watching his 2016 tape in the summer of 2017, I came away believing Adams might be the most talented young tackle in college football. However, a 2017 ACL tear and 2018 back injury have taken several points away from his athletic rating.


    I remember when Dennis gave me shit for saying that. It was one of the few good takes I had back then. Zierlein knows how to evaluate offensive linemen. Too bad about the injuries.
