Any problems teams will have about drafting players with past injuries can be partially blamed on Doo Doo Clowney. In the “old days” if a player was even rumored to have an injury, his draft stock could seriously go down or even be eliminated. But then came modern sports medicine and strength and conditioning training. Was working well until Doo Doo was drafted and part of the reason he was a bust was due to poor performance from previous injuries. I hope teams don’t go back to the way it used to be but I’m sure they’re gong to look harder at a player’s health.

“Lombardi is probably working for a team that wants Tua to fall to them in the draft.”

So many of the top 100 picks end up as busts. With that in mind, I’m surprised some teams don’t grab QBs whenever possible. Just hit one right and it changes the franchise.
