I'm sure if it was completely in his control, then teams would understand how to help him avoid being injury-prone or at least have some criteria on which to base not drafting players who are.

I'm curious how many players have entered the league like Lee and Carter, coming off ACL tears, and have gone on to have long, major-injury-free careers.
