TrashTalker92 Posted April 22, 2021 Share Posted April 22, 2021 Hopefully someone still gonna draft him before 11. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmenroc Posted April 22, 2021 Share Posted April 22, 2021 If he has had it throughout his college career, seems he has been able to manage it well enough. Only if it is a recent development should it affect draft status. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No doubt it could scare someone off and force questions....curious how many teams knew about it in medical testing. Bigger concern if he neglected to mention or purposefully hid it. That would be the red flag to me. If I am Pats, he is still a target in the 1st. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately, even though I have to think he has had the best care possible....seizure disorders are brain disorders...they get worse as you age...and head trauma makes the condition worse. It is also not just seizures...EP also has debilitating migraines, depression, and fatigue associated with it. There are a lot of variables here even if it under control via medication and good lifestyle choices. C. Wagon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wagon The article I read said his doctors expect him to grow out of it like his other family members did. I don’t know diddly squat about it though.
