Other than his rookie year with the internal injury that his injuries have been to the point that he was inactive.. Has he had any surgeries in his career or have they all been sprains and strains? He needs to know the difference between being hurt and being injured.

I think this a real dangerous game to play, just because from what I have heard over the last three years Jacobs has some intangibles you don't find in alot of players, work ethic, route running ability, etc. The question is how long do you keep holding on to him? I say give him another year if he is injured this year.

People gave up on Jimmy Smith (2ND RD Pick) big time, take a look at the first 4 years of his career, ZERO CATCHES SEVEN GAMES PLAYED!
