bud29 Posted May 9, 2015 Share Posted May 9, 2015 WOW. Glad I didn't just draft him yesterday...Oh wait 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darin3 Posted May 9, 2015 Share Posted May 9, 2015 MFL has him as a DE so he'd definitely be one of the first IDPs taken in a dynasty/rookie draft. Tough break. First day? What are these guys doing? It's freakin' MAY. So dumb. The first few weeks with their new team should be spent with trainers and doctors evaluating every last muscle and tendon in these guys' bodies.

Cowboyz1 Posted May 9, 2015 Share Posted May 9, 2015 That just sucks so bad. Good healing kid. Luckily, they have come a long way in ACL repairs. Almost like a broken bone now just takes longer to heal and get back to full speed. More mental now then physical. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rajncajn Posted May 9, 2015 Share Posted May 9, 2015 Saw the video last night and it just looked like a simple change of direction plant and his knee buckled sideways. Just a freak accident. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BA Baracus Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 The Broncos 3rd round TE tore his ACL today. Not nearly the impact to the team, but crazy to see these ACLs popping in May. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MorningMud Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 The Broncos 3rd round TE tore his ACL today. Not nearly the impact to the team, but crazy to see these ACLs popping in May. I didn't understand or like that pick to start with, but still tough to see. Hopefully he comes back next year and it isn't a wasted pick.

overworkedirish Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 Are trainers not doing their jobs out there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keggerz Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 Are trainers not doing their jobs out there? No, that's not the issue. As I see it there are two things at play...1. Injuries happen. 2. These guys just finished prepping for the combine and are more in "track & field" shape than they are football shape and that could (not saying it's the reason) be part of the problem.

I'm sure a lot of these guys literally "hit the ground running" as well trying to impress their new teams and win starting jobs when they're probably not physically ready and their bodies are not yet prepared for the types of sudden movements required. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
