Concussion history is no joke either. Both are hugely risky going forward.FireCohen said:

I'm guessing we'll know where he's going once he announces the order of his OVs... although giving UW a small chance to change his mind with the first visit

As @dnc mentioned concussions are no joke and there’s definite risk that turns into a no warning just retired situationFireCohen said:

Achilles obviously are no joke as well and recovery can be fickle. That said given ZTF’s age I think the evidence suggests that you’re able to return closer to pre injury than if it happens later in one’s career. The key in the rehab will not be going too fast that you run the risk of injuring other areas by over compensating -
Surprised that nobody is using Sidney Jones as an example. He had a lot of good film, popped his Achilles, and went in the 2nd round. Bust in the NFL, but that's not the debate here.
ZTF does not have any significant body of work, but he does play at a position of demand. I think he could go in round 4 of next year's draft. If he's desperate to get some money now he can get 4 years at around $750k per, but I don't know how much of that is actually guaranteed. He'd be smart to come back. If he had a 7-8 sack season in 2022 people would say he's rebounded well, getting his legs under him, and has a higher ceiling. Probably would go round 2. It's too bad he got hurt because he had the potential to be a top-10 pick next year. -
Good rule of thumb for any injury ... take whatever the recovery time to get back and double it for when you’re where you were prior to the injury
Sidney obviously didn’t have a great career in Philly but I think it’s also fair to point out that entire position has struggled there
He got some decent run last year in Jacksonville and signed a new deal there this off-season
Sometimes the difference in bust and good career is the fit with team/scheme -
Jones isn't a bust. He just never got his feet under him in Philly. He had a good season last year.. It's important to note that he was coming off an awesome season, good combine, and good pro day when he got hurt. There were zero questions about him aside from the injury and he hadn't been sitting out like ZTF will have been.BleachedAnusDawg said:Surprised that nobody is using Sidney Jones as an example.

ZTF has questions beyond the injury issue.. He is bad at edge containment and only has four games under his belt as a starter. His impressive four game run might not prove the kind of consistency and durability the NFL wants to see. -
Yeah, that was basically my point and comparing why Jones still went Round 2 even after the injury whereas ZTF would not go that high right now.chuck said:
