This is what is out there and likely incomplete.Georgia WR Mecole Hardman (Round 2, No. 56 overall)Nothing of significance I could find here—likely that team is getting a reasonably healthy playerVirginia S Juan Thornhill (Round 2, No. 63 overall)Missed one game in 2017 with a “lower extremity injury”Played in nearly every game in collegeOverall, seems to be very healthy coming to NFLWestern Illinois DL Khalen Saunders (Round 3, No. 84 overall)Found no injury history on this athleteAppears he played every game in collegeSouth Carolina CB Rashad Fenton (Round 6, No. 188 overall)Apparently had a groin injury in bowl game this past season that limited him from playing in second half. This looks to have been either been resolved completely on its own or from surgical intervention due to fact that athlete reportedly performed well at combine and pro dayNo other injury of significance foundUtah State RB Darwin Thompson (Round 6, No. 214 overall)Appears that he played in every game in 2018 in some capacityFound no injury history of significanceIllinois OL Nick Allegretti (Round 7 http://www.chiefslockerroom.com/authentic-jarvis-jenkins-jersey , No. 216 overall)36 straight starts to end his careerDidn’t see a missed game in collegeWhat stands out the most is that this is an extremely healthy draft class, upon first look. This doesn’t account for all the bumps and bruises that occur during a football season, but to just see all those starts and games played is remarkable for a collection of players. The Chiefs clearly placed availability as a trait they focused on in this draft class. Paul Allen — owner of the NFL’s Seattle Seahawks and the NBA’s Portland Trail Blazers — died on Monday in Seattle. He was 65.In a statement, his family said Allen died from complications of non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma.Allen was originally diagnosed with Hodgkin’s disease in 1982, and in 2009, underwent chemotherapy for non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma.Although it had been in remission for years, two weeks ago, Allen announced that the non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma had returned Womens Patrick Mahomes II Jersey , and expressed optimism in his ability to beat the disease.Most owners of professional sports franchises are relatively unknown individuals who become well-known only when they first purchase their teams.This was not the case with Allen.In 1975 — after seeing a Popular Mechanics magazine cover showing an early microcomputer — Allen persuaded his high school friend Bill Gates to drop out of Harvard University and join him in Albuquerque, New Mexico, where a startup company called MITS had built what is now credited as the first personal computer.Bill Gates and Paul Allen (right) in 1975The MITS machine lacked software, and Allen and Gates — who in high school had spent time programming mainframe computers through time-sharing terminals — convinced the company they were the team to write it.Allen dubbed their partnership Micro-Soft, and in 1980, the company landed the biggest fish in the ocean, making a deal to provide the operating system software for IBM personal computers.Although there are many individuals who were instrumental in developing the technology you are using to read this article, Allen’s name is certainly on a very short list among them Tyreek Hill Jersey , as acknowledged in a statement issued by current Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella:Because of his recently-diagnosed illness — and reported differences with Gates — Allen left Microsoft in the early 1980s, although he remained on the company’s board until 2000.His personal wealth — estimated in the tens of billions of dollars — funded many philanthropic causes in Seattle and the Pacific Northwest.Some — such as the Science Fiction Museum in Seattle — reflected his personal interests.
