Some people just can't seem to stay healthy for vorious reasons, and his seemed to be brittleness.
It may turn out that was simply bad luck, but until he gets through more than one season relatively unscathed, it remains a concern.

This.
There's never been a debate about his talent. Only about his ability to stay healthy.
Were there people that were less than thrilled with the pick? Sure.
But they were almost universally "less than thrilled" because of the injury history, and the thought that we didn't need to trade up to take him.
He'll be an important part of this team for the next 5-10 years - IF he can stay healthy.
