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.

      TNF: Rams/Seahawks

      By UnluckyforSome · Posted

      I think the book has been fairly written on Darnold, and by and large stays true. He can be rattled by pressure, and will lose his composure. If a team can get to him and have something go wrong in the plan, the mistakes and errors will pile up. Rams have a better offense, Seahawks sport a better defense. Should be a good 1.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By Mr. Scot · Posted

      Not a defense of him...an understanding of the problem. (something you seem to be lacking right now) 🙄 Bryce in a Canales offense is not an example of a stylistic mismatch, but I can give you one if that helps. When he was playing for the Panthers, Cam Newton sat under OC's running Coryell type offenses. Newton had a big arm and was a strong runner. He fit into that sort of attack very well. Then he goes to New England, where at the time they were running an Earhardt-Perkins system (similar to WCO In a lot of what they do but very different terminology). The Patriot offenses back then were heavily based on timing and rhythm style passing, not something that Newton was especially well suited for. So he washed out at New England, not because he had poor ability (his abilities had been on display here on a regular basis) but because he didn't fit what they wanted to do with their offense. I always go back to Jeff Garcia as one of the prime examples of this issue. Garcia in a WCO looked like a world beater. Put him in any other scheme though...yikes!  So again, Young's issues here have nothing to do with any failure to mesh with Canales. Hell, is say Canales has actually done pretty well at adapting his system to who he has rather than trying to jam square pegs into round holes. Again, it doesn't take an elite level of football knowledge to get this. It's pretty basic. But if you're not even capable of understanding what the real problem is, how are you going to know you to find the right solution? 🤔
