I'm big on Ross, loved the pick, and even I will admit that the health questions are fair. That said, writing him off as Eifert 2.0 is silly at this point.
I remember when everyone (other than me) was glad we signed the "iron-man" Leon Hall over the "fragile" Johnathan Joseph.
Leon goes on to tear both achilles and miss 23 games over the next 5 years. Meanwhile, Joseph has missed only 7 games in 7 seasons in Houston, making 2 Pro Bowls and is still playing at a high level, while the younger Hall has bounced around and is about washed up.
Point being, sometimes labels are too hastily applied.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
