And every report I read is that only ONE team believes he needs microfracture surgery.
Kindle missed how many games in college? Moeaki?

the issue with injuries in college isnt how many games they missed in the past as much as how the injuries will effect how many games that player might miss in the future.
Moeaki had broken bones, not ligament damage.

Chambers fell into his lap. I'm not going to give him credit for picking a guy up on waivers because the two teams ahead of him passed. It was a no-brainer and worked out for 2009. I personally don't expect the same level of production in 2010, but I hope I'm wrong.
TJ was a good signing for the money. But he's not a long-term solution.
I hope the Lilja signing works out, but I'm concerned about his knees, and that we're apparently going to play him out of position.
I've done nothing but praise the selections of Berry an Asomoah all weekend.
You know where I stand on McCluster.

If I remember correctly, you wanted no part of us even claiming Chambers at the time because of the cost involved, same with Thomas Jones.
Am I remembering correctly or should I look it up?

there is a difference between fat and lazy.
...
I would MUCH rather have Dexter over any of those guys TBH.
If Orakpo didn't kick every ass he faced in his rookie year (like he did in college at Texas) Kindle wouldn't be thought of so highly IMO, the guy is a terrible run defender and is a highly under-productive sack artist. Add to that his injury problem that could cause him to loose what might be looked at as his biggest strength and what you have is a boom or bust guy with a low ceiling IMO.
**** KINDLE at 36, I would have been pissed if we took him TBH
