[QUOTE="TJV, post: 576169, member: 4300"] IMO the “hate” was due in part because that pick was so unexpected. I don’t remember anyone predicting Harrell would be the Packers pick at that spot. But I think the more important reason was he did have a history of injuries (probably why many/most/all didn’t consider him for that spot in the first round). This is from CBSSports.com: “[I]Harrell enrolled at Tennessee in 2002, spending the season performing on the scout team. Hard luck with injuries limited him to eight games as a reserve defensive tackle in 2003. He missed more than half of spring drills after right leg surgery. In fall camp, he broke his ankle, sitting out the first five games. When he returned, he re-injured the ankle after just one snap against Miami and saw limited action the rest of the year. In 2004, Harrell started the team's first 11 games at right defensive tackle before an ankle injury against Kentucky would limit his play in the final two games. … Harrell started all 11 games in 2005, shifting to left tackle. … The defensive captain started the first three games of the 2006 season at left tackle before missing the rest of the season. … In 35 games, Harrell started 25 times. …[/I]” [url]http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/draft/players/historical/412246[/url] I didn’t quote any of his stats, which were pretty impressive, since this is about his injury history.
