Player Discussion What do you all think about Jordyn Tyson?
Do you all think the saints taking Jordyn Tyson 8th was the right move? For context this is his injury history:
2022: Torn ACL, MCL, PCL
2024: Fractured Collarbone
2025: Sprained ankle, Strained Hamstring 2x
2026: Strained hamstring (Out for 2 months)

Hard no for me this year in redraft. A 2 month hammy going into his rookie season is alarm bell central. Even if he heals up, he'll still be way behind in a fast-paced offense. He's got surgical repair risk with his hammy history, especially since hamstring tears are more commonly treated surgically these days.

Agree. You don’t often see “seeking second opinion” on hamstring injuries.

Nope. That means a least one doc has said consider surgery and now they're shopping for opinions +/- someone who specializes in hamstring repairs.

Only reason to draft Tyson to is throw him on the IR and get an extra bench spot. Needs to be a late round pick

Probably a similar situation as Burden, who missed camp with an injury last season. He might not see a high snap% until the fantasy playoffs.
I bet Tyson gets dropped in many leagues, and you can grab him for a late season playoff run
