We're not contending in his rookie season. So I guess it depends on how valuable he would be to the future of the organization.

Just saying it's something to consider when drafting. He would not help the defense this year so you still need help while your 1st round pick recovers. I'm not sure Tepper has the stomach for that.

If he has surgery he's not playing his rookie season. 

Virtually no chance of that. It's generally a 3-4 month process if surgery is required. Half of that if surgery is deemed unnecessary. I doubt he'll get surgery before the draft but if a team that drafted him deemed surgery was necessary he'd probably have it shortly after the draft. That would make his expected return sometime around mid-August to mid-September so he'd definitely miss all off-season activities and most of not all of training camp. I'd probably expect him to start out on the PUP list while he gets up to speed and be active starting game 5. If surgery is deemed unnecessary he'd be ready for camp.

No to pre injured players. At least early

To get that type of talent at #8 you need an extenuating circumstance. That's how Star fell to us. The "heart issue" scared some teams off. This isn't an ACL or an Achilles. But potentially missing camp and getting off to a slow start could potentially move some teams off of him.

      Not sure how much he was a long term piece of this team.   Sucks to not have him as part of the rotation.   Looks like it's Lee Hunter time.

      I am not sure he will put the over the games but we’ll probably have them.   Two things I am thinking.  We have 4 preseason games.  All the coaches have enough service time to know the standards that are in place for decades. If I recall it was play your starters just a series to start woth and build it up until week theee where play a lot and you have week four to set hour roster. Evaluate before cuts.   Bevell will certainly have the whole thing down pat.   I’d they don’t do the fries and frie air will worry too. Because it is set up to do that.     I have said since they went t three preseason people have to figure a new way are still feeling it out and trying things.  We don’t have to this year.
