You championed taking guys coming off Achilles tears a few years back and found out the ROI wasn't good. I'm surprised you're this adamant about a similarly detrimental injury.
I would not take a chance on it in round 1, I just wouldn't. There is too much risk involved. Could he be great again? Absolutely. Is it likely? Not based on historical results. I'd take a shot on that in round 2. Round 1, I want more of a sure thing.

This is what you aren't understanding. I'm just deferring to the staff on injuries, as I always have. I simply grade the player and argue for the player. Since we don't have enough information the majority of the time, I don't even bother with the injury stuff in terms of my personal evaluation.
