I’m just saying it’s not safe to assume All’s career is over.
This is the outlier, not the expectation. Thomas Davis had a high ceiling coming out of college. He was a phenomenal football players. If his ceiling was 95/100 and after injury he was 80-85/100, that is still a very solid contributor.
All is a good player. His ceiling may be in that 80-85 range, but post injury his ceiling is 70ish.
I’m kind of making this up, but hopefully this illustrates the point.
There is a lot of data that supports it is an uphill battle for ALL.
