Lughead Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 So do we compensation for him this year in the draft or No? If yes is it in the 3rd round (the round we took Jones in last year) If it comes out after the draft that he can no longer play football (just saying) how do we recover that pick do we wait till 2012 draft or do we get awarded some scrub?

BlueInCanada Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 I'm not sure on this but I doubt we will get any sort of compensation for him at all. He was critically injured in a non football related accident and the only way I know of, of a team getting rewarded compensation picks is when they have multiple players leave in FA or retirement.

Treehugger Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 I don't think Atlanta got any compensation after Vick got booted out of the league, and wasn't he the highest-paid player in the league at the time? I doubt we get anything for Jones. Like Blue said I think comp picks are only there to balance out FA signings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not because of a gruesome car accident. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he was hit by a Hummer on the field, during the season, we might get something. Otherwise......nada. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lughead Posted January 16, 2011 Author Share Posted January 16, 2011 Speaking of Chad Jones, is there any news on him and his chances of returning to ever play football again? Jan 4 2011 The class was also hindered by the offseason car accident of safety Chad Jones, who suffered multiple fractures to his lower left leg. Jones, a fourth-round pick, would have contributed if healthy. “Chad is improving,” Reese said. “I still think he has a long way to go. We get videotape of his rehab sessions and I’m not a doctor, but it looks like he has a long way to go still.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrashTalker92 Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 Why? Rich Seubert came back from a fractured in multiple places leg. Yeah but Chad plays a position that requires speed over strength I want this guy to come back and play but when injuries he suffer. I'm glad he can walk.
