It's not debatable that his injury impacted his contribution, which is why calling him a bust and consequently criticizing the Patriots scouts for failing to anticipate such an injury is ridiculous.
Do you realize how many NFL players suffer MAJOR injuries and still go on to have productive careers? Dobson was healthy enough to even play through the injury in the 2014 AFCCG; he did reaggravate it, and it clearly effected him back then, but let's stop acting like he has his foot amputated. You have guys playing through huge injuries all the time.
The injury DID impact his contribution towards the latter half of the 2013 season and possibly the beginning of the 2014 season. What exactly does it have to do with his career since he has been healthy?
Every player the Patriots have ever drafted has at least one injury that impacted their contribution at some point.
