Garrett suffers injury according to mary Kay
-
Well, we can take 2 routes with this kind of important investment:
1) Completely ignore the foot injury and play him every single down.
2) Treat it how the Chargers treated their 3rd overall pick (Joey Bosa) last year when he had a hammy injury so they used a time table and a rotation until he was ready for the overwhelming majority of snaps. Looked like it worked too!
#2 looks like a very sensible approach to me.
Of this 2 options yes number 2 is the only sensible one. That doesn't mean it's a good option, just the only 1. Death by n'gowa If you remember the joke. Sure rest up miles. Sit around until l training camp, maybe even all through training camp And when you finally do get into a game situation you won't be in shape, at least not as conditioned as if you'd gone through training camp. And then we know what happens.
Anyway I'm not trying to be 2 dam negative but this does bum me out. Like spending your life savings on a Brand-new Porsche that breaks down before you get home.

Steve, I totally get the frustration and worry people have about it.
Having said that, rookies never have an offseason or any recuperation period to heal up. As soon as their Bowl Games are finished, it's pedal to the metal to prepare for the best possible results at the Indy Combines. Some guys that aren't elite or projecting for upper round one spots have to go play in a college all star game after a week full of practices against other all stars before they get to prepare for the Indy Combines.
Once the Indy Combines are completed, guys get ready for their Pro Days. If anyone listened to Garrett's presser when all 3 of our first round guys were getting interviewed by the media - Garrett spoke of his reluctance to do the pro day mentioning he was sore. Jeff Fisher encouraged him to do the Pro Day in spite of it and he had some great results again. That said, do you know what wasn't getting a chance to heal throughout all the jumping and change of direction prep work? The ankle/foot.
This kid showcased he was in top shape and remained in it all the way up until the draft and mini-camps shortly thereafter; so I'm not worrying about a couple months to rest/recup the injury. Nobody makes the Pro Bowl in May, June and July (Dennis Northcutt season). These guys will be participating in the strength and conditioning program all year in addition to practicing so the muscle memory and endurance will be back in no time. I'd be more worried about hurrying this guy back before we need to and worsening his situation longer term. Yeah, it sucks but the sports med staff will work in tandem with the strength and conditioning coaches and the rest of our coaching staff. They'll have a plan for this gigantic investment.

My niggling worry is that he knew there was something wrong and kept it under cover through the draft.
The precious little information we've gotten about this injury is a little bit concerning.

With the amount of time that's passed, if it was serious something would have leaked about it.
The dude also tweeted this yesterday: http://brownswire.usatoday.com/2017/07/06/myles-garrett-tweets-out-encouraging-video-of-his-foot/
I'm pretty sure they wouldn't let him do something like that if he wasn't in pretty good shape.
EDIT: That's a fuckton of weight too btw

or draft a player who has bigger circumference of glass ankles than 2.25"

If it's really nothing and he lives up to the hype great.
Trent Richardson said his injuries were nothing to worry about.
