Source on jk dobbins 4.37 time? That didn’t happen at a pro day nor combine. I wouldn’t put him in that elite category, don’t think that’s accurate.

Thanks for the comment.
I pulled 4.37 off of PlayerProfiler, which I think they pulled from his Pro Day or other testing. Dobbins was long-projected to be in the 4.36-4.42 range. Of note, if he ran a 4.45 or faster, he would still be in the 90th percentile. In-game speed indicates he would easily clear that, so he should still be in the elite tier.

It’s amazing to see how far medical science has come. ACL injuries used to be career ending (Ki-Jana Carter anyone?). Now most of these players come back better than they were before the injury, much like baseball pitchers and Tommy John surgery. I normally don’t fade players with ACL injuries anymore (and only ACL. I will shy away if it also involves PCL, MCL, & LCL), providing the injury occurred prior to age 27 and they still have opportunity on their team. Usually I can pick up these players returning from an ACL on the cheap in trades with more cautious owners.
About the only injury that I truly shy away from is an Achilles injury. Very rarely does anyone return to form after an Achilles injury.
Good article!
