Not me, but my best friend growing up might be able to give you a run for your money. He played quarterback from Pee Wee up through freshman year where he finally had to stop.

I don't remember everything he had done, but I do recall he'd had both knees scoped by the time he was in 8th grade.

Yeah. My first time under the knife was in the summer after 11th grade for said elbow surgery…smh.

I managed to avoid surgery for the most part.

Well, for sports injuries anyway. The aforementioned lawnmower accident cost me half a big toe 😕

Football is where I got most of my injuries, though taekwondo, track and mowing my brother's lawn certainly did their share.

Don't expect to end up with CTE but the fibromyalgia diagnosis came in some weeks back, so there's that 😕

Damn bro sorry to hear that. Stay strong 💪🏼

I don’t mind the competition between Baker & Darnold for a week or so, but we all know Baker will be QB1. Rhule needs to make a decision soon & let Baker go with the ones. 
 

They need to let PJ go now. Let Matt take his reps. Find out what he has & see if surpasses Darnold as the backup. 

Injuries happen in Training Camp and preseason games. COVID is also still a big deal although 5 days out instead of 10 is a game changer. Why the hell would any coach want to reduce his depth at the most important position when he doesn't have to? Everyone needs to stop saying to cut Sam or PJ because it, smartly, is not gonna' happen. This is not to say all are equally talented because they are not.

I’ve had elbow surgery, shoulder surgery, 3 back surgeries and next month knee surgery lol. Can anybody beat that??

This is one competition I am glad to lose. Although I did have ACL replacement on a knee and extensive surgery on my shoulder. Sports related. It seems the old guys who still compete sports are those athletes who avoided injury early or didn't play sports much at all until later essentially saving their bodies a lot of wear and tear.

I've been needing rotator cuff surgery for years but haven't had it.  Unless you count circus sex I guess it's not really from a sports injury.  Pulled a few muscles a time or two. This one time me and these two ladies were... wait.  What was the question?

Oops wrong thread.

Kiss my ass I'm drunk.

    • Not really. It all depends upon perspective. You can draft quality OTs high every year. They have one of the lowest bust rates by position. DTs, less so, but good ones still come along at a regular clip. With WRs, it's simply best to draft one in the first round if you want a legit play maker. Moreover, WR is going to set you back more than OT or DT at really all statuses, meaning JAG receivers are going to make more than JAG OTs and DTs, and elite receivers will make substantially more than elite OTs or DTs. I would also argue that it's much harder to find a franchise level OT or DT that can have an altering impact upon the game. So, if you don't believe they can, you may as well wait for day 2 or 3. That's why sticking to your board is probably the wisest thing to do. If you're not committed that the value is there, then what are you doing? Lastly, I don't think you should necessarily draft in a vacuum, but you must look at each team from year to year. People want to make them the same, but they're different. You have to start over every year and identify where the strengths and weaknesses are. You can't say, "Well we drafted [so and so] last year or two years ago, so we'll just draft this this year." That's not realistic and it can be highly counterproductive, especially in light of the reason that you should be trying to use FA to set up the draft.
    • If you read through his stuff, he's had a raging hate-boner for the Carolina Panthers the likes of which would make many long-tenured Huddlers blush. Every win was "yeah but" and every loss was "see I told you so".
    • Let me preface this by saying I've read WalterFootball on and off for 20 years. That's an indictment on my decision-making, and it's more than fair to be questioned.  However, the days of reading what's become weak ragebait have drawn to a close after he re-graded the 2025 NFL Draft's first round. He gave T-Mac a C on draft night. What was his re-grade for the NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year?  Carolina Panthers: Tetairoa McMillan, WR, Arizona – C Grade One-Year Grade: C+ Grade Tetairoa McMillan won Offensive Rookie of the Year, but only by default after Emeka Egbuka vanished in the second half of the season. McMillan was good, and was certainly limited by Bryce Young’s mediocrity, but there are still concerns about his work ethic and passion for football. If he doesn’t progress in the coming years, we’ll know why. Original Write-up: Wow, our Panthers source did not pan out for once. Jalon Walker was heavy chalk to go here, but the Panthers decided to draft a No. 1 receiver instead. While this fills a need, I’m concerned with Tetairoa McMillan’s work ethic, which is something you never want to hear from a first-round prospect, especially one who is chosen in the top 10. Bryce Young needs this, and McMillan is talented, but will he give 100 percent at the next level? Also, what about the defense, which was the worst in the NFL last year? https://walterfootball.com/nfldraftgrades2025.php
