I'd like to know if there's evidence to suggest that playing OG has less risk of injury.
I'm not sure if there's anything you can extrapolate, but he wouldn't be shuffling side-to-side as much.
It probably wouldn't be the most reliable data but it'd still be interesting to see if there are fewer injuries for OGs vs. OTs. I've heard some people say it would be safer and others say there's no difference. I don't know. The best solution for Saffold would probably be to use an entire exo-suit that protects every joint on his body and then to bubble-wrap his head under the helmet.
But would ne be more susceptible to having his leg rolled up on?RamsOfCastamere thinking Saffold won't be shuffling off his mortal coil:

Well Saffold got hurt twice this year playing tackle and not at all playing guard????
That would describe me to a tee. Those pectoral and bicep injuries that OTs get when trying to stop/slow down an edge rusher with just one hand/arm would probably be greatly lessened too. I guess someone could check and see how many Ts versus Gs went on IR this year for comparison. Too much work for me! :lol:RamsOfCastamere with this:
I that can happen either way. I was thinking about how Jake injured himself with no one around, but that was fortuitous. I'm just shooting blindly, tossing out ideas
While I would like them to sign him to play ROG I am not interested in over paying for him. He has been acceptable at RT and LT I would not agree that he has dominated those positions, he has not been able to stay healthy enough to use that label on his play. $4M for 4 years with incentive clauses for staying on the field
He had a "head injury" at the end of the season against the seaqueers.
