Well that’s two people in that last 6-7 years lol anyone else? 

I guess the point I’m making is it’s not that common. Of course guys can still play but it takes something from a lot of these guys. I would like to see if he can even play before we give him the brinks truck.

 Fowler, Watson from his first tear, Hines Ward literally never had his ACL repaired and played his entire career. Honestly I think there are actually fewer who had it be the death sentence for them(could be wrong).

Like i said before i  agree with you to an extent. I'm not saying throw the bank at him. But i think over looking him for more unproven DP's is a little less beneficial.

“In the NFL, like other sports, a lasting return to play is also influenced by the player’s pre-injury position – 20% of running backs and wide receivers never return to the NFL and for those that do return, performance drops by a third. However, because their performance is less tied to lower body speed and explosiveness, 12 out of the 13 of NFL quarterbacks studied after ACL surgeries were able to resume playing at pre-injury levels.”

Well that sort of sinks everything i said before... lol... You win...unfortunately.
