Ok… name me 5 players from the nba that could make it through training camp and then be picked to a roster… the physical toll on them would be terrible. I doubt any of the 5 would make it past 10 days… it’s a totally different animal….
In Todays game?
Anthony Edwards-WR or Safety
Zion Williamson- TE/DE
DeArron Fox- WR
Ja Morant- WR
Scoot Henderson -WR/DB
Bonus
Donovan Mitchell- WR/DB
I think 30 is far fetched, but its definitely an easier transition to go from basketball to football. Foot work and speed is there, just need to bulk up a little. The physicality of football is rapidly declining. Body weight on QB rule, hip drop tackle thing etc.
I played against Odell Beckham in basketball when he was at Newman. while he was a great athlete, he was very average basketball player. Our group of all white kids beat them.

He can’t make it through an NBA season and you think he can make it through NFL training camp and preseason?
