It shouldn't be that shocking that a guy recovering from major surgery went out and threw 100+ times.

Example: Sam Bradfords pro day

quote:

The guy threw every route. He did not throw one bad pass. It’s a very catchable ball, he moves around well, he carries himself well. I think he’s got a very, very bright future ahead of him.”



quote:

With representatives of all 32 teams in attendance – including the Redskins’ general manager, Bruce Allen, and Rams Coach Steve Spagnuolo, who was caught on camera talking to Bradford immediately after the workout ended – Bradford threw, by some estimates, about 100 passes to all parts of the field. He threw from a simulated shotgun and he threw on the run and he seemed particularly at ease with deep passes. He showed no sign of discomfort – he said at the scouting combine that he has had no pain – and his arm seemed strong.

Bradford was coming off a shoulder injury. Makes sense that he had to show off his arm, since it is probably the second most important part of playing quarterback (after the mind).

No one questions Mett's arm, though, and throwing the ball 120+ times doesn't really prove his knee is healthy.
