Again, as has been said before, having those injuries doesn't mean he would have leg injuries, just that he seems to get injured more than other players. It just isn't a good look. Now, maybe you can show that many players have a bunch of injuries like him, but generally, if one guy has had injuries, whether football related or not, and one guy hasn't, I think it's pretty safe to think that one guy is more injury prone than the other.
I would agree with you if the injuries were all “similar” - soft tissue injuries, bone breaks, concussions, etc., but when a player has one type, then years later an injury that’s completely unrelated to the earlier injuries, then I wouldn’t call that player injury prone, but that’s just me. Not many guys get through a football career injury free. In any case, this might all be a matter of semantics, so with that it mind, I’m off to Christmas dinner. Hope all my fellow DolFans have a great holiday, and may our new year bring us a GM who can build us a winner!!
Yeah, for me personally, "injury prone" doesn't mean that they are injuring the same thing, or even similar things. To me, it just means that they are routinely struggling with some sort of injury, whether sustained on the playing field, or slipping in their shower. I don't even say we shouldn't draft them, just that they shouldn't be in the first round. Anyway, Merry Christmas! I honestly think that we actually agree on more than we disagree on, just we're always discussing the things we may disagree on. Haha
And… he was hit by a ****ing car. Lol… I guess if a player is injured after they’re hit by a car, get stabbed, or some other similar things they are “injury prone”. lol
If he was a real man that car couldn’t injure him. He’s just soft. He should have made that car his b*^%%.
I'm not sure you're going to find 32 players worth a first round pick with no injury history very often.
I'm not sure how you are going qualify 'routinely struggling' with injury for the draft then? College players often only have a couple of years of play.
