What were they? Freakish? Would you take him at 1.24?

The nearest Steelers bar.

Ehhh, offensive line, it happens. That said, two ACL tears, right ankle twice are a significant concern. The duplicate ACL injuries are not great, since I have to believe the replacement ligament, an allograft, has a failure rate and is less sturdy than the original ligament.

Would you take him at 1.24?

I would not because of the injury concern. I hoped he would be there at 87 for the Steelers, but just don't believe that possible any more. I think the Steelers are going to get Jenkins or Harris at 30 and hope Dickerson falls to 55.

First round talent, just a little too risky in the first, IMO. I think he's worth the risk in the second.
