It all comes to down to risk tolerance. I for one would not have jeered TT for drafting an undersized LB with injury history.

Because having the two banana slugs we had for inside LB's to end the season, and started the season with again this year, is worth the risk in my view.

Every player comes with flaws. Torrence Marshall was a gifted athlete with impressive size. But he had a ten cent head and the instinct of a fence post.

A fourth down "flyer" if you will on an injury risk, on a position where results have been less than stellar would have been fine with me.

One could also argue he's a TT type of player. Solid character, hard worker, productive, "Packer person" if you will. A football player, not a combine freak.

Also, no guarantee the player with pristine health doesn't shred his knee first play. Any snap could be the last snap as Collins & Finley can attest.
