In this edition of my Big Board: A new Alabama defender makes his debut, and a quarterback drops out.A reminder: General scouting reports on these players wont change week to week unless my overall evaluation changes. Ill simply be updating performance notes and providing updates on key matchups to come.One asterisk denotes a junior, and two asterisks denote a redshirt sophomore for the 2016 season.1. *Myles Garrett, DE, Texas A&MGarrett suffered a high ankle sprain in late September and has missed two games since, including the blowout win over?New Mexico State two weeks ago. In the Aggies upset loss to?Mississippi State over the weekend, he didnt look like himself.?The injury has taken away some of the explosion that makes him such a promising talent. This shouldnt affect Garretts draft status, though, if the injury doesnt linger past January. At 6-foot-5, 265 pounds, he has the length, strength and ability to bend the edge. Hes a brilliant, natural pass-rusher who?looks like a top-five lock.2. *Leonard Fournette, RB, LSUA week after rushing for?284 yards and three touchdowns on just 16 carries against Ole Miss, Fournette was shut down by Alabama, rushing for 35 yards on 17 carries. The Tigers managed only 125 yards, and they didnt score a point. That says more about LSUs offensive struggles and Alabamas defensive dominance, though. Dont worry about Fournette. Hes really special when hes healthy -- that was an issue the first half of the season, but he looks much more fluid after being limited by a gimpy ankle. At 6-1, 235 pounds, he has?an incredible combination of size, speed and power that can make him look like a varsity player hanging with the JV. Mileage was a concern heading into the season, so the ankle injury?could benefit him in NFL scouts eyes. He had a whopping 300 carries in 2015. Air Max 720 In Offerta . -- Tony Stewart is 20 pounds lighter and has a titanium rod in his surgically repaired right leg. Air Max 270 Scontate . LOUIS -- Mike Smith is used to facing plenty of shots, so this was nothing new. http://www.airmaxitaliascarpe.it/scarpe-air-max-plus-scontate.html . -- Edmontons Val Sweeting is two wins away from a trip to Winnipeg to play in Canadas Road of the Rings in December. Air Max Plus Scontate . Just not the game. Kyle Palmieri scored two straight goals in the third period to rally the Anaheim Ducks past the Philadelphia Flyers 3-2 on Tuesday night. Air Max 200 Uomo Bianche . -- Most satisfying to Russ Smith about No. Friday nights clash between Geelong and Western Bulldogs is a finals-shaping blockbuster.Its also a case study in managing the emotion of an AFL season.Geelong will celebrate their storied milestone men Corey Enright and Jimmy Bartel in front of a capacity Simonds Stadium crowd.Enright becomes the all-time games record holder for the Cats in his 326th outing while Bartel plays match 300.For the visitors, theres a very different feeling.Coach Luke Beveridge was almost in tears as he discussed the long-term injuries suffered by Mitch Wallis and Jack Redpath in their last-out loss to St Kilda.Injuries have been a constant refrain in the Bulldogs year, losing captain Bob Murphy and youngster Josh Prudden to ACL ruptures earlier in the season.Theyve lost more players to injury than any other top eight side this season, allowing Beveridge to name an unchanged side just twice all year.Hearing the news of two more fallen Dogs, Geelong coach Chris Scott said he wasnt thinking about them as an opponent coach but more just as a footy fan.The Bulldogs have some challenges. Im sure theyll be wound up, he said on Wednesday.The whole industry feels for individuals when they have devastating injuries and you feel for the club as well.We know what its like to have emotion-charged injuries. Dan Menzel didnt play for four years.It takes a little bit of a toll. Our heart goes out to them.ddddddddddddGeelongs long-serving Cats will be feted on Friday night, and Scott said he was delighted theyd share the limelight.Its been fantastic in a way the two guys are sharing it. They have so much shared experience, he said.For the football world to be able to acknowledge it on the same day is fitting.However, he urged some caution for his players.I think there is a risk too you get too emotionally wound up, Scott said.The priority for our guys, especially the guys enjoying milestones, is the season maintains momentum.Exactly how to keep the momentum gained in last Saturdays defeat of high-flying Adelaide is a conundrum for Scott.Zac Smith (managed) and Lachie Henderson (concussion) are expected to be available to play the Bulldogs, but possible exclusions Jed Bews and first-gamer Sam Menegola showed their worth against the Crows.In normal circumstances when guys come in and play well youd like to think theyd hold their spot, he said.But weve got really good availability. A couple of guys (are) coming back who have been mainstays of our team.Its been a challenging time trying to pick our best look for this week.Josh Caddy (knee) could also make a return after five weeks on the sidelines, whether in the seniors or reserves.
