Then he won't get to trade up range.

Guys - teams aren't passing on premier talent at 'big ticket' positions like QB, OT or WR because of injury. Hell, they don't really do it at DL anymore.

If Simmons falls to the 20s it's because he was a 10-12 talent who got hurt. True blue chippers don't fall. If he does then he wasn't the sort of turnkey starting LT you're suggesting.

If the long-term medicals check out for premier guys at scarce positions, their injury penalty is de minimis.
