Potential 1st round Arizona St WR Jaelen Strong has a fractured bone in his wrist, sources say. Likely needs surgery at some point. #ASU WR Jaelen Strong is among players headed for combine rechecks this weekend. Teams want a status update on the small bone in his wrist.

So 249 players will now be gone by our pick instead of 250.

Not good, but likely not detrimental.  Likely won't impact his draft status at all if he's going to be ready to go by camp.  If you're "likely to require surgery at some point", might as well go ahead and bite the bullet and do it now.  Especially if he'd be good to go by camp.

Bad news for Jaelen Strong . I was already thinking he was likely

to fall to Round 2.

Tough blow for Jaelen Strong, but don't think it's something

that hurts his draft stock too much. Tape, combine should

speak for itself.

He would definitely miss OTAs and likely all of training camp if he were to get surgery since that is likely a determination that wouldn't be made until after the draft. I do wonder when it occurred. Going to the re-check indicates it was an issue at the combine, but surely he wouldn't have been cleared to participate in catching drills at the combine and at his pro day if it was known he had a broken bone in his wrist. That would lead me to believe it happened recently and he is going to the combine re-check so all the teams can get the same information on the injury done at the same time.

      NFL admits the TMac catch should not have been overturned

      By Bama Panther · Posted

      It was absolutely a catch, and I can’t believe how many folks were stating, before the NFL’s apology, that the overturn was the right call.  The ultimate question in this case is this: can a player complete a catch with only one hand? Of course, we all know the answer to that question, and it is an emphatic “Yes.” T-Mac maintained complete control with one hand (believe it was the right) while the other came off when the ball hit the ground. The ball was in the same position in the one hand (watch T-Mac’s fingers in relation to the NFL shield on the ball) after touching the ground as it was when it first went to the ground. Going back to the question above, if one hand can establish control, then there was no need for the other to stay on the ball, so long as the ball doesn’t move in that one hand that stays on it   It blew my mind that they overturned this in the first place. This should not be a “We got it wrong on the replay because there wasn’t clear and convincing evidence.” This should have been, “That was absolutely a catch.”

      Sign him up. I am willing to bet he wouldn't finish a game with -2 yards.

      Why Panthers’ Dave Canales won’t run a QB sneak with Bryce Young

      By TylerDurden · Posted

      He is just fuging limited in every way.  On one hand, and nfl player, you would want to bulk them up so long as it doesn’t limit their mobility, elasticity, flexibility, ROM, or dynamicism - as is the concern with bulking up.  But the issue with that is, you would be worried about that when a guy has those traits to begin with.  Bryce is a very average athlete with a weak arm.  So if you’re not gonna be a great athlete with a strong arm, bulk up.  And if you can’t or won’t bulk up, find another fuging profession that doesn’t require athleticism and arm strength.  You’re built like a bitch AND aren’t a great athlete - you can’t be subpar in both categories…  well, unless you play for the Panthers apparently.
