He only had one ACL tear. The second surgery was to correct the first because it was not done correctly. At least, this is what Mike Mayock said.

I was impressed when Jon Stinchcomb pronounced it so confidently during the draft.

Phonetically it's written and pronounced like - " How Oh Lee, Keek Aha"

Hope that helps!

He then went on to post 32 combined sacks in 2013 and 2014, that to me shows he has not suffered since the injury.

He's still young. Gotta wonder how he holds up in the long run.

This was a tremendous value pick.

He's obviously been a productive college player, though most of it came in one year. I like the kid, and don't mind having him on the team, but I find it very risky in the second round.

When you say value pick, to me value is getting a guy a round or two below is projection. This was a borderline 2nd round guy, with medical red flags thrown in. So I don't consider this a value pick, based on that. Of course, if he stays healthy and produces he makes it a value pick.
