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. |

And the benefit of the 5th year option outweighs the value difference. At least imo

Yeah, usually on a machine with a spotter. Sometimes with knee on bench. See next comment for rest of idea re: this report Quote:
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. Quote:
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.

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

And if he can't move he's shit. Complete shit. Kingsly will be on the field. He'll be ass but he'll be an NFL player. This is not a thing that matters now - that flare up could come next week or next year and then he's done. No one is arguing about his upside but you. We all know what it was before the injury.

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.

Why would it?
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.
