Myles Jack's medical results reportedly released

[JeffG]

Take this for what it's worth. Posted just now on Twitter ...

Ian Rapoport @RapSheet
#UCLA LB Myles Jack's medical recheck is over. "Differing opinions." Some teams thought the healing wasn't fast enough. Others are OK it.

 

[JohnnyHopkins]

Well, that is fairly indifferent.

 

[conner01]

That's what I expected. Different doc have different opinions. But it only takes one team to draft him

 

[erod]

La'el Collins Part II......yes!!

 

[Bowdown27]

This doesn't help at all. Seems the same as what we thought before....that we know nothing

 

[Sydla]

Did anything leak out about Smith's knee report?

 

[Rogerthat12]

Jack told Stephania Bell of ESPN that the recheck went well and that “no one had any concerns” about his knee.

Individual teams may have different opinions, of course, and Ian Rapoport of NFL Media reports some have concerns. Jack has been making visits to many of the teams picking in the first half of the first round as they try to make those determinations. Absent red flags that haven’t come to light, it doesn’t look like last year’s knee injury will deflate Jack’s draft position too much.

Seems as if results will be team doctor relative, team comfort with the knee and how it is healing.

Sturm just tweeted all his peeps said it went well.

I still don't think you take a player with this type of injury with the 4th overall pick.

 

[Fla Cowpoke]

I have read up on this quite a bit and the procedure involved is supposed to have a 4-6 month recovery time. He is well over that already, so there definitely is some concern. The fact he won't run a 40 is a concern....I honestly don't understand how he could do jumping tests like vertical and broad jump but not run in a straight line. I could see them wanting to go slow on anything with side to side movement but a sprint?

I've been trying to brace my fellow Myles Jack fans for this...

His rechecks did not go well for several teams. Longterm question marks.

That sucks. Not bringing him in for a visit plus that kinda report probably means he's off the board. Oh well. Looks like we got the 4th pick on a really down year at the top.

I know basketball is a different sports but russell Westbrook had a torn meniscus and he's the most insane athlete I've ever seen in my life besides AP. I don't know

Yes, on the draft show he thinks the Cowboys pass on Jack.

Many players have surgery for a torn meniscus every year, Wilbur had it last year and was out 2 games. It's a minor surgery. Jack surgery involved trying to save the meniscus and sewing it back together. But even that seems like it should have healed by now. Word is he needs micro fracture surgery.

 

[reddyuta]

Huge red flags, won't draft him even in the 2nd rd.microfracture surgery is almost a career ender.

I believe he had the long recovery procedure too where they stitched the meniscus together rather than just shave off the bad part, which is what Jack did and should be better long term. Don't know what kind of complications can come with that though.

 

[SilverStarCowboy]

No red flags @ # 4 please.

 

[JohnnyHopkins]

You know, there is a whole lot of reason to secretly float out concerns to news outlets if you are a team hoping that Jack falls to your pick.

Just sayin!

 

[Rogerthat12]

I think Brugler called it about right for Dallas, if they are not sure about that knee why spend a premium pick.

The medical recheck did not help his cause, mixed results is not really good news.

I think Jack will no longer be part of the conversation @4.

 

[Fla Cowpoke]

Have heard different things, but don't compare the injury to meniscus tears where they just trim off the damaged part...that is a short term recovery. This was known to be a 4-6 month recovery...although it has gone past that mark already.
