Strief and Colston were both 7th rounders. Thomas Rawls went UDFA a year ago. Talent can be found anywhere.
But way more often than not, 7th rd picks don't make much of a contribution.
I understand the injury is bad, but if healthy, he would be in the running for the #1 ranked player in the draft.
If we are just picking examples out of a hat, I remember a QB that we signed who most said would never get back to his previous production due to a possibly permanent injury.

i think the "he was in the running for the #1 overall pick" is a bit overplayed. Most had him top 5, but #1 overall? Nah.
I'll spend a 7th on him, hell I'd spend a 4th on him, but top 3 rounds are where we can find instant contributors or 2nd year contributors at a high rate. Here, we're risking someone who may never take the field due to pain and motor issues, it just isn't the same kind of risk.
