There hasn't been dramatic progress in this injury. It's still rare and not many good outcomes. And I'm not against risk. If you'd told me before this draft that Veach was trading up into the top 10 to grab his LTOTF I'd say "He knows what he's doing. Take your shot." That isn't what we did. We took a big gamble because we didn't want to trade up. We hoped to get lucky like we hoped to get lucky with Kingsly and all our other long shot LT picks.

I literally am the authority you trust.
I am evidence of why you shouldn't trust it.

Now you’re in year 2 and the guy is getting his feet wet. But it’s a potential LT….i get it. Hell I’m actually fine with it if he has to sit. I don’t even really hate the pick. They need a LT of the future so it makes sense. Hopefully we can eventually build a good enough OL for the qb to avoid the fetal position |

31 other teams very clearly did here. So either Simmons isn't a blue chip talent or this AINT an injury to be hand-waived.

We have two pretty good options at LT and they will battle it out at camp to see who will start.
I'm excited. |

Blocking scheme is irrelevant. He is Pro Ready now. This is not Kingsley.

I don't see any way Moore doesn't start this season. Hopefully he plays great so we can either extend him and have Simmons play on the right side next year or trade him and we can slide Simmons in at LT. But unless he's just flat out terrible at camp, I don't see a guy that's still recovering from a major injury being able to beat him at camp. |

Can both not be true?
Why would I think he’s not the top notch talent everyone says he is? It’s right there to see. Dancing bears are too rare to miss when they’re right in front of your face. To pretend Simmons isn’t that would be admitting I can’t evaluate talent, at all. |

Isn’t this somewhat similar to Nolan Smith falling to the end of the first? Blue chip talent falling down the draft board because of injury? Maybe teams think Simmons will miss some time this year and didn’t draft him in large part for that reason.
