WOW...if he is actually hurt (still not sure since he said he was joking about it) it would change the first round dramatically. instead of foster going #1 who knows where he goes. i know i would have a touigh time taking him if he is going to be out week one at least. tate and ward together don't equal foster.
first you got the uncertanty of chris johnson and now this....

I would let him slide to the 13th pick or so

Bust or great buy low if he falls in drafts? ESPN's John Clayton quickly jumped to the conclusion that Foster wouldn't be ready for Week 1 after viewing the MRI

...perhaps he should hereby be referred to as Dr. Clayton, eh?... [/QUOTE]He only did the reporting......
"ESPN's John Clayton, citing a report by ESPN's Dr. Michael Kaplin, says that Foster could be out "three to four weeks" with his hamstring injury.
A four-week absence would cost Foster games against the Colts, Dolphins, and Saints. He would return in time for a Week 4 contest against the Steelers. "

In all seriousness, count me in as someone who thinks he's not playing Week 1. Not sure how that affects his draft status. He's still a Top 8 guy to me.

To me this is irrelevant. It's like he is going to fall into the 4th round or something. Whether he drops from the 1st spot or the 14th spot someone is going to have to have him sitting on the bench on Week 1 regardless. So I'd say if you can deal with the chance of him not playing the first week or so then draft him. You may just have to reach for his handcuff a little earlier than planned.

first you got the uncertanty of chris johnson and now this.... Foster hasn't gone #1 in either of the two drafts I've done since Sunday. Considering I've got the #1 pick tonight, I can pretty much guarantee he won't be going #1 in that draft either.
