As a Pats fan, do you have any faith in Wynn ever being reliable? Or do you think he’ll be a brokedick bust?
I don’t see an OT who’s already missed this much time ever staying healthy. Those guys are in a car wreck every week.

Two thoughts there. First, last year was a torn achilles. This year it's a turf toe. Both seem like bad luck type injures, and not the type of injuries that are typically chronic, or quickly lead to early retirement (concussions, back, neck). I'm hopeful the guy has just had some bad luck.
Second, I have learned not to predict anything. Andy Katzenmoyer was a superstud at Ohio State that the Pats drafted high. He played like 35 games in a row in college. One neck injury and he retired early. No way to predict that.
On the other side of the coin was Willie McGinest. He was drafted #4 overall and ALWAYS seemed hurt early in his career. Like 212 groin pulls it seemed like, among many other "nagging" injuries. And then he went on to help lead the team to three Super Bowl victories and is now in the Patriots HOF.
So the bottom line is I reserve all judgment, and just hope he gets better. If not, then it's a wasted pick. But he's like 23 years old or whatever, so I'm not exactly ready to give up on him.
