If true, I would advise not going to twitter unless you want to get pissed. I?m quite sure there are tons of people that will love to say how he deserved it, karma, etc because of a mistake he made as a 17 year old

Terrible

GD that sucks....

Piss on em. Some team is about to get a steal on him in the 3rd or 4th round... Makes me sick for him

I'll be he still goes late first or in the second.

I'll be he still goes late first or in the second.

For his sake, I hope you're right. Just don't see a team paying first round money on an unknown at this point..

He's too good to slide into the 2nd. Smart teams with value picks will get him. Pats, Saints, Ravens, etc... will take him in the 1st still.

They're trash if so

a la Jaylon Smith for the Cowboys....that's great and all for the team that drafts him, in terms of getting a bargain....but it really ****ing sucks for him. He worked his ass off to get here, was likely going to be a lottery pick, and wham...

[Ari Gold]

He won’t fall out of first round ..

Very much a Jaylon Smith type situation without the nerve damage(hopefully).

Smith went 34th overall

Jaylon Smith was taken 1st or 2nd pick of the 2nd round with a similar situation.

Hope my Saints will grab him up.

[msstate7]

Simmons gets hurt... we all immediately think of jaylon smith haha

Smith is a star now BTW; Simmons will be too

[BeardoMSU]

He's not an unknown, though. He was dominant in the best league in college, going up against the best talent in the nation. People come back from knee injuries all the time, and it's not like he's got a history of injuries. Plus, it's not like it was his Achilles, neck, or spine. He'll be fine long term, it just sucks in the present.

[msstate7]

Hope my Saints will grab him up.

No way he lasts to pick 60 (think that's our pick). We need someone that'll play this year anyway with brees running out of sand in the hourglass

Jaylon Smith was taken 1st or 2nd pick of the 2nd round with a similar situation.

Jaylon had more than one torn ligament and nerve damage though. Simmons isn't falling out of the first round. Wouldn't be surprised to see a few teams try to jump into the late first to get him.

Yep. The Pats have done it in the past, I know.
