He expects to be ready for camp, but still – how will it handle contact? Will he be the same tackler? And Kirkpatrick had his struggles. This is why I wouldn’t be surprised if the team picks another corner high.

Did he suffer a separation or a dislocation? A labrum tear commonly happens with a shoulder dislocation of the glenohumeral joint usually in the form of a SLAP or Bankart lesion. You can't dislocate the shoulder without damaging the capsule. A shoulder separation involves the AC joint and doesn't involve the labrum or the capsule. Your description of his injuries is more consistent with a dislocation than a separation. Point being there is a big difference between the treatment and recovery time for a separation vs. a dislocation.
