Maybe they really are just foolhardy and so desperate for a franchise LT that they took Simmons, all risk be damned, or maybe they're privy to medicals we aren't and other teams didn't do enough work on him to find out one way or the other. We'll see come August, because Reid was adamant about him being good to go at training camp. If he's not it's going to be very concerning.

Well, I think the reality is somewhere in between, most likely.
It's a big risk, but it's a done deal. Let's get on board and be hopeful.
