So Calvin Johnson signed at the #2 slot for $64 Million.

AD got $40.5 Million.

Were the durability questions that costly?

I know that moran.

What I'm saying is if AD finishes the season healthy, wins or finishes 2nd in the Heisman race does he slip to #7 and thus cost himself $24 million?

I'd say that's a pretty safe bet. With 3 injury free years, I doubt he slips past 1.

I was just trying to quantify his injury(ies). I think I confused the hippie.

Switzer said he still to this day can't believe how much more violent the NFL is compared to CFB. If you get dinged up in college ball, they will and should factor that in.

No. But if he's 100% healthy, wins the Heisman and is everybody's All-American do 6 teams pass on him? Aren't other teams scrambling to trade up to get him? I say that if he never gets injured he's drafted no later than 2nd. That's all. Cracker.

word was some teams tried to move up, but were offering crap for the top picks.

I personally would without a doubt take a healthy Adrian Peterson over Reggie Bush. Reggie Bush was going to be the #1 pick but when contract talks fell through the second team didn't hesitate to pick him eventhough they already had one of the better RBs in the league.
