I can only think of one caatastrophic injury year that befell this team in that span, and that was 2014.
Not even the Eagles can say that. And compare that to a bad injury team like the Chargers. They've had like 8 horrible injury seasons since then lol

Trey Smith paid off, big time.
They used the same strategy here, but the medicals must have been more positive, or clear with Simmons, and other teams must have had him on the 2nd round radar, and Veach had to act.
But, for anyone who is upset or thinks it's too risky, who would you have taken?
I am happy with the pick, but if I was going to take a slight reach at 31 or 32, I have to say that I would love to see what Spags could do with Emmanwori, or maybe Mike Green (couldn't really be worse than FAU but is more versatile) and on offense I may have taken Arroyo/Taylor.
You don't really get 1st round talent that late in the draft usually, and we got a Top 15 talent. I hope he gets healthy, and it works out, but if it doesn't, did we really lose anything?
