Again - there's no reason to believe he's more likely to recover next year than he is this year.
His 'recovery' is likely going to be near the finish line by the fall. It doesn't mean he'll ever be what he was, not a year from now or 3 years from now.
That's a really nasty injury, fellas. It isn't just going to take time - it's going to take time and winning the genetic lottery. His body just has to recover better than the majority of them do from injuries like his.
And if the Chiefs decide that's not a gamble worth using a 1st round pick on i would completely understand it.
