If they sign him after Monday, great. If not, I'm not going to cry about it.

No, it is a RISK. One that if it works out is very smart... only dumb if his knee doesn't hold up.
I don't see ANY reason to worry about his health... if a person is VERY disciplined in regards to their recovery, microfracture surgery isn't a huge deal... the problem is that most pro athletes are not the most disciplined people. Jon is.
Do I think he is a long term answer? not at all. Do I think he single handedly will win us games? nope. Do I think he will help shape the discipline and intensity of our future offensive lines? absolutely.
(Oh and he may actually help our QB last most of the season)
