Medical concerns could affect some Phins targets

No Ted Ginn in there huh? wow. guess cus its already documented. These seem like very minor concerns and I am not sure why it is being put out in public. Every football player who has played alot i would think would have some degree of arthritis or whatever. Not worth worrying over.
 
Great mock. Although this "slight arthritis" in Levi brown's knee is a red flag. 330lb offensive lineman may not be good high draFT PICKS WITH ARTHRITIS in their early twenties! It certainly doesn't improve with age!
 
It depends on what "slight" arthritis means. Just loss of joint space is not arthritis, although some diagnose it as such.

And Ginn won't have any red flags for his severe mid-foot sprain (not ankle), unless it appears that he is not rehabing properly. He is infact rehabing properly and on schedule, which to those with no neuromusculoskeletal training, confuse it with fragility and such.

U mean rehabing while working out for scouts and having to quit mid stream?

I'm sure he felt that injuring his ankle further was the better option. I'm amazed he worked out at all, and he still ran pretty darned fast even with the sprain. You never realize how much something will hurt you until you can't do it anymore due to pain.
 
Michigan DL Alan Branch  Teams cited shin fractures that are fairly common in big men of his size. The concern seemed relatively minor in nature but still noteworthy enough for many clubs to mention.

Depends on the fracture location. Distal ,and proximal-third, (bottom and top third of shin) tibial stress fractures are common in athletes and can be easily treated; rest, rest, rest.

Mid-third of tibia can result in immobile casting (3-6 mos.) or intramedullary (IM) rodding (metal rod - can return to speed in a few mos. = quicker recovery).

Heard his stock was falling. Maybe the reasoning behind that are these fractures found?

Yup, and I see nothing wrong with doing that. Plus, the general consensus was that, even at 70%, he still wowed them.

Again, the only red flags (as far as his health) are from the fans who don't understand the nature of his injury. Or the amazing number of them who still think that it's his ankle, or that he injured himself doing some solo endzone celebration dance. I guess some will just believe what they want.

Things like "he's fragile" or "injury prone"? :wink:
