Cause I haven't seen anybody question his arm length before. Heck, it's listed as a strength in most of the profiles I could find. I think the 24 year old part is real, but I don't know if a minor injury is enough to knock the guy down the board that far. https://thedraftnetwork.com/2018/12/10/2019-nfl-draft-player-profile-yodny-cajuste/ That’s a great site btw.

He does let guys get into his chest and while he's got the strength to anchor, he doesn't get a good punch on DE's. I attribute that to short arms, but I could be off on that. Also, I did not research his injury. It looked terrible and I presumed it was some sort of a serious knee injury. Could be wrong, but I'm sure that didn't help him. Will he be competing at the combine? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MWil23 Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 I stopped caring about arm length for OT's when we got this guy: I also stopped caring about size/hand size when we drafted this guy: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will he be competing at the combine? He wasn't injured for the bowl game, he chose to sit to prep for the draft and avoid injury. I haven't seen anything since then. Are you thinking of his ACL tear back in 2016, cause that one was brutal. Probably would've been in the draft in 2017 or 2018 if not for that. http://www.rotoworld.com/recent/cfb/136982/yodny-cajuste Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Announcers never said what it was. Maybe nothing serious or maybe trying to hide it until it’s healed for the combine. Whatever the case was he didn’t finish the game.

Also BTC, I agree with you that if he doesn't get a good punch and let's guys get into his chest, he's in a world of hurt at the next level. I'm just not a short arms believer personally.

For a guy that has injury history, adding something to the list can’t do anything but hurt. That’s what I’d do if I was him; Go into the combine healthy with no whispering.

Theyre gonna ask him at the combine what the injury was, it’s not like he’s keeping anything a secret long term. There’s no upside to not disclosing it publicly tbh, the teams will get the info by the end of Feb either way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
