That's the million dollar question. We'll never have the answer.

But damn it's a fascinating thought exercise.

I'm not entirely sure what point you're trying to make there.

Risk is of COURSE mitigated by the amount of said risk you're taking on. Which is directly related to where the pick was made.

I mean...yeah. And? I'm fine with Moore at $15 million/season. I wouldn't have been fine with him at $30 million. It's not because I care about his take-home, it's because I care about how it impacts the cap and this what we can/cannot do around him. Again - a direct risk assessment.

That's...universal. It's every argument ever had about personnel on this board. Hell, it was what spun me up about Skyy.

What you're arguing is effectively a truism.
I’m not really arguing anything, more just trying to tease out your approach versus theirs and seeing where they diverge.

Before the draft, you seemed like you would’ve been okay with him in the second. And that’s pretty much on the basis of knowing nothing of the specific medicals and just taking him as the median case in the study that showed that only 1 of 15 OL really recovered from the injury to play at a similar level. Totally fair.

So then let’s consider that the Chiefs have a bit more of the specific medical information that - to them at least - puts him in a more favorable light versus said median. And then maybe they have him on their board in the 5ish range instead of your 10-15.

If you work with the above construct, then gap would seem to narrow between your taking him in the second to their doing so in the first. That’s all.

It’s not like the decision is out in some other orbit and indefensible.
And the benefit of the 5th year option outweighs the value difference. At least imo

One dude I know who is a moderately good CrossFitter (way better than me) I see did 255. None of these guys are rehabbing torn knee ligaments, and yes none of them are professional athletes. I get that pro athletes are mostly way above these guys. Just still believe that for a ligament that was surgically repaired a few months ago we don't have to act like 225 pounds is nothing. If he's doing that and somebody is evaluating that the knee is functioning properly and looking good that could be meaningful.

Yeah, usually on a machine with a spotter. Sometimes with knee on bench.

See next comment for rest of idea re: this report

Educated guess, but highly likely.

Sure. The point about him squatting 225 on both legs is that if he’s squatting half the weight you’d reasonably expect to be his max rep, they’re not testing if he has regained his full strength and flexibility after the repair. So you don’t have a gauge of how much of what he was before the injury, is still present. You can be confident the surgery was good, but you haven’t texted if the knee is as powerful and good as it was before.

I told DJ - and he disagreed with me - that I wouldn’t take him. But at best, a player with these risk would be a Day 3 guy for me.

Those decisions were made independently of each other.
The work they put into Simmons during the same timeframe they signed Moore disagrees with that, doesn’t it?

It's a risk no matter what. The cost of the risk is what makes it a better or worse decision.

Buying a work car that might last a year for $600 is much better than buying one for $6,000.

I think we're fine focusing on floor at LT. Smart to do so, in fact.

DL, RB - gimme ceiling. Secondary, LB, OL - I'm emphasizing floor. WR would largely depend on the existing room.
As Mahomes gets older, a better LT might be more important.

No one is arguing about his upside but you. We all know what it was before the injury.

I always enjoy this.

Guys get specifically called out, often by name, and when they respond - in a public discussion forum - this is the result.

Okay fella. Keep on pissing in your shoes and wondering why your socks are wet.

I had a couple wholly benign posts with a red thumb, figured I'd see why.

Otherwise it's draft season. Red thumbs are to be expected. Scurry along now tiger - you have posts to vote on.

Of course if he "can't move" he's going to suck.
