It rots my socks to see Myles "big draft risk, knee injury" playing for the Jaguars tonight while our top 2 draft choices languish in the infirmary.

 

That is all

Isn't his issue longevity not immediacy?

Yes because we can frankly rule on this in the pre season of year one

 

Huh? Rule on what where how? They're my socks and they're rotting over this.

 

Perhaps there was some part of "that is all" not quite clear to you? This isn't a treatise on long-term career prospects.

Whaley is not responsible for Ragland, who knows how long Jack will play. Lawson will be fine and know one knows how good any of these players will be.

True dat. Ragland should be fine too. Next year.

 

Still rotting my socks right now when the words "next year" roll like gall and wormwood in my mouth.

Yes, that was a big conversation piece, pre-draft. The thought was that he' d be a stud but lucky to last 3 or 4 years max. Time will tell.

Just noticed your draft pick wishes.

 

Glad to see that you also have Jake Butt on your radar. We need more TE depth on this team, and he would be a good addition.

The average lifespan of an nfl player is around 3.3 yrs., I believe. Don't know if that would be on the minds of GMs when the draft comes about.

When you draft a guy in the top 15 you expect him to play 8-10 years. The reason the average is around 3 is so many players play 1-2. The average for starting players is much higher.

Precisely. It's a black fly in your chardonnay

The big risk with Jack is that by the time he gets accustomed to the NFL (in 3yrs) his knee will be gone.

 

Top draft picks supposed to come in ready to play, and 1st contracts only 4 years with an option for 5. Before the draft, there was all stuff about whether his rehab was going ultra-badly and he would be out at least a year. Then right before the draft, he would be ready day 1 but might need microfracture surgery some time in the future. Then the day after round 1, word was publicized from James Andrews no surgery needed.
