Thoughts go out to his family.Now, on to the cold-hearted analysis of the situation: in a case like this, is there any history of the NFL awarding compensatory draft picks or anything of the like?

I was excited to see if he could put his talent together with a full off-season and camp under Rod Marinelli.

You think between college, the scouting combine, and team physicals something like an enlarged heart would show up, right? Someone with a medical background would probably have a lot of insight into this.
